About

  • English
    • To get to Bourg-sur-Gironde, you can take the Corniche road, along the Gironde estuary for about ten kilometres. You can also see troglodyte dwellings in the limestone cliff. Bourg-sur-Gironde, which contrary to its name, is located on the Dordogne, is a quiet little village, with its small port on the edge of the estuary, a magnificent covered washhouse dating from the 19th century, and its upper town leading to the ruins of the castle of the citadel where a horse-drawn museum has taken place. From its promontory, there is a view of the village, the estuary and the Bec d'Ambès.

      Near Bourg-sur-Gironde, the decorated cave of Pair-Non-Pair has parietal engravings of bison, mammoths, ibex, dating back 30,000 years. In Lansac, the mill of Grand Puy has been completely restored by a volunteer site, a festival is dedicated to it in mid-June.
