Nontron tourist information
Nontron is the official centre of the Perigord Vert region of the northern Dordogne, and is well placed for exploring the region. The Regional Natural parc of the Perigord-Limousin is to the north of the town.
Without particular notable landmarks, and unlikely to occupy you for more than a couple of hours, but Nontron does have some attractive buildings - some in colombage - in its medieval centre.
While in the area also visit:
- the curious rock formations a few kilometres out of town at Roc Poperdu and Roc Branlant
- the medieval village at Bussiere-Badil
- the picturesque village and chateau at Varaignes.
