A 12th-century bastide village in the Quercy Blanc region of southern France, Lauzerte sits on a hilltop above vine-covered valleys and holds a place on the Santiago de Compostela pilgrimage routes. It is one of the Les Plus Beaux Villages de France — a designation held by only a small number of villages across the country — and offers a modest but real café and restaurant scene for its size, with scenic views across the surrounding countryside.
