On the border of the Quercy and the Périgord Noir, Souillac spreads its tiled roofs around the Abbey of Sainte-Marie, a Romanesque gem. The banks of the Dordogne alternate between meadows, wooded hills and plots of vines, ideal for large plots.
Here, longères and farmhouses in limestone retain beams, fireplaces and barns with outbuildings. Markets bring the square to life, while Rocamadour and the Dordogne Valley, classified as a biosphere reserve by UNESCO, offer walks and panoramas.
Duck, truffle and walnut cuisine, orchards and enclosed gardens complete the art of living. Souillac station on the Paris–Toulouse line makes arrivals easier, and the Sim Copans festival recalls the musical roots of the town.
