Tips from the Community
Bretenoux is a fortified town in the Haut-Quercy region, recognizable by its checkerboard layout and large central square lined with arcades. Located at the confluence of the Cère and Dordogne rivers, it has been a busy trading center since the Middle Ages. Today, its lively streets and well-preserved heritage make it a pleasant stopover between Rocamadour and the valley's castles.
