Roquecor is a sleepy medieval hilltop village, tucked away
in the department of Tarn et Garonne, close to the border
of the Lot and Lot et Garonne. Once fortified, it still retains
some of the original buildings, which date back to the twelfth
century.
Steeped in local folklore and set into the hillside directly
below La Forge, lie several prehistoric caves, which were
once inhabited by troglodytes. The village has won many awards
for its floral displays and boasts a popular Sunday morning
market, which trades all year long selling fresh local produce
and crafts.
The traditional French Café Bar, Cafe
du Centre, situated in the centre of the village, offers
excellent lunchtime and evening menus and features live music
most weekends during the summer. The village shop sells fresh
bread and groceries and has a good selection of local wines. More>
