A Brief History
St Georges de Montclar is in fact composed of two hamlets. The ruins of
Montclar Castle (eleventh and sixteenth-century) overlook the medieval village of the same name. The castle was once one of the most beautiful abodes in Périgord but was destroyed during the Revolution and used for its stones in the nineteenth century.

What to See
A stroll through the narrow streets reveals typical Périgourdin houses with pointed roofs. An immense covered market hall was rebuilt in the seventeenth century and stands in the main square. Not far from the market hall is the one of the oldest houses in the village recognisable by its stone pillared arcade.
