	Quai Salvette Tip Rating:

Updated By Canadienne on April 30, 2003

Quai Salvette

by Canadienne

Parking in Bergerac was extremely easy. This municipal parking lot at Quai Salvette is situated right on the bank of the Dordogne and just steps away from the vielle ville (old town) of Bergerac.

There was no trouble finding a spot and the cost during daytime hours was extremely low.

	Gare de Bergerac

By ettenaj on May 24, 2006

Bergerac has its own train station that is easy to find just down from the main road on Rue de Regiment D'infanterie, also the main bus staions stand in front of the train staion, so if there is no train going to the place you want to go to , try a bus!!!

	Le Vieux Port Tip Rating:

Updated By Canadienne on April 30, 2003

Le Vieux Port, Bergerac

by Canadienne

The old port area of Bergerac is actually quite lovely. There are spots both on the quai and on the banks of the river to sit and gaze over the Dordogne.

The port was the site of an 11th-century castle that protected the city ~ it was overtaken in 1615 and brought to ruins shortly thereafter.

This is also the spot where "gabare," or traditional boat rides, leave from during the heavier tourist season.

	Maison des Vins Tip Rating:

Updated By Canadienne on April 30, 2003

Maison des Vins, Bergerac

by Canadienne

The Maison des Vins is housed in a section of a 17th century cloister. The entryway into the cloister has wall displays that detail the history of wine in the region. You can follow the panels downstairs to a room where a short video loops (French and English versions are played). It is a short film, and has some beautiful scenes of the countryside, so it doesn't hurt to take a seat for ten minutes.

The next stage in the Maison des Vins (the whole "museum" is free), is a centre for testing your nose ~ you can play around with different stations to see how easily you identify about 25 scents (woods, fruits, etc.) that assist your wine tasting skill.

The self-guided tour ends in a shop with free tastings ~ there was no pressure to buy.

	La Place Pelissiere Tip Rating:

By Canadienne on April 30, 2003

Place Pelissiere

by Canadienne

This is the largest, and arguably the prettiest, square in Bergerac. There's a lovely fountain, a fantastic view of the Eglise Saint Jacques. . .and some lovely patios to sit at and enjoy your surroundings.

All of the streets that lead off from this square are attractive as well. . .with some beautiful older town homes (15th and 16th century).

	L'église Notre-Dame Tip Rating:

Updated By Canadienne on April 30, 2003

L'église Notre Dame,
Bergerac

by Canadienne

The 19th-century Notre Dame Cathedral is located just on the northern outskirts of the pedestrianized vielle ville (old town) of Bergerac. The clock tower reaches 80 metres ~ making it an excellent point of reference throughout the town.

The inside isn't terribly remarkable ~ but it does cast a striking image against a clear sky.

	L'eglise Saint Jacques Tip Rating:

Updated By Canadienne on April 30, 2003

L'eglise Saint Jacques

by Canadienne

Of Roman origin, the Saint Jacques church was historically a place of rest for pilgrims following the Santiago de Compostelle route.

The church was partially destroyed during the wars of religion; Louis XIV was ultimately responsible for its reconstruction. Only the clock tower above the balcony is original, but it is still an attractive building.

It's situated on the Place Pelissiere, so sitting out at one of the patios is a terrific way to enjoy a view of the church.
