Strolling through a market in the Périgord Inattendu is like plunging into a world where flavour, colour and conviviality come together to create an unforgettable experience. This region, rich in local produce, lives to the rhythm of its weekly gourmet and seasonal markets, where producers and artisans come together to share their passion.

Each market is an invitation to discover. From fragrant fruit and vegetables to carefully matured cheeses, artisanal charcuterie and sweet treats, the stalls are bursting with local treasures. Then there are the Périgord specialities, such as foie gras, truffles and walnuts, for which the region is famous.

The atmosphere changes with the seasons, but the authenticity remains the same. In summer, the night markets and farmers’ markets offer the chance to sample dishes prepared on the spot in a festive, musical atmosphere. In winter, the fat and truffle markets celebrate the exceptional products of the Périgord.

The markets of the Périgord Ribéracois and the Pays de Saint-Aulaye are much more than just places to shop: they are meeting places, places for sharing and living reflections of a preserved culinary heritage.
