- Monument to the peasant Buffarot:
Buffarot, a weaver in Capdrot, roused the Perigord peasants in a
revolt against injustice and oppression.
In 1637, he was executed on the wheel in Monpazier. “He was
broken on a scaffold of all his members, one after another, the
head last, without being blindfolded.” (book of the late Maître
SAVY).
Pierre de MOLINIER captured him in Monpeyran, in the
jurisdiction of Villeréal, following orders received from
Bernard de LA VALETTE, the duke of EPERNON. “They took his
members to different places, his body on a cherry tree at
Bernadet, his head at Belvès.” (Pourquery) |
