Hôtel de Ville de Sarlat - side doorway (Sarlat-la-Canéda/FR)

Hôtel de Ville de Sarlat - side doorway. A very elegant designed doorway. This building was build in 1623 and restored in 1899 to it's current state. The facades and roofs are classified as historic monuments.

Sarlat-la-Canéda - a very popular town in the Périgord Noir. Because modern history has largely passed it by, Sarlat has remained preserved and one of the towns most representative of 14th century France. The centre of the old town consists of impeccably restored stone buildings, with 77 protected monuments it's on the list of France's Tentative List for future nomination as a UNESCO World Heritage site. Largely car-free with lots of narrow ancient streets and small stores, perfect for city wandering and to discover.
