Siorac de Ribérac

Siorac de Ribérac: A pretty little commune in the Périgord Vert region.

Situated in the canton of Ribérac, it has a population of 256 and a surface area of 2086 hectares, and is located in the west of the Dordogne department at the gateway to La Double, 6 km from Ribérac.

It is a member of the Communauté de Communes du Ribéracois. The village is very popular with tourists. Their encouragement and that of the local population helped motivate the elected representatives to enter the Aquitaine Towns and Villages in Bloom competition.

Renowned for its charming village clinging to the slope of a hill, the village center features the 12th-century Romanesque church of "Saint Pierre-ès-Liens", listed as a Monument Historique since 1946.

With its rivers, streams and springs, the commune is particularly well irrigated. It boasts a forest of varied species covering around 60% of the commune.

A small village full of character, where the built heritage has been enhanced and where it's pleasant to stroll and discover many beautiful things.

The development of the village and its outskirts is a municipal priority, and the Municipal Council remains very vigilant in its choice of development in order to preserve the architectural and landscape quality of the site and its flowering.

A dozen small businesses are present, as well as a rural multiple (bar, grocery store, restaurant) which was created in the village by the municipality in 2006.
