Sarlat la Caneda or simply Sarlat, is a commune in the Dordogne department
Sarlat la Caneda or simply Sarlat, is a commune in the Dordogne department in Aquitaine in southwestern France.The town of Sarlat is in a region known in France as the Perigord Noir (the Black Perigord, as opposed to the Green Perigord, the White Perigord, and the Purple Perigord).Sarlat is a medieval town that developed around a large Benedictine abbey of Carolingian origin. The medieval Sarlat Cathedral is dedicated to Saint Sacerdos.Because modern history has largely passed it by, Sarlat has remained preserved and one of the towns most representative of 14th century France. It owes its current status on Frances Tentative List for future nomination as a UNESCO World Heritage site to the enthusiasm of writer, resistance fighter and politician AndreMalraux, who, as Minister of Culture (1960 1969), restored the town and many other sites of historic significance throughout France. The centre of the old town consists of impeccably restored stone buildings and is largely car-free

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the enchanting town of Sarlat in southwestern France. Known as Sarlat la Caneda or simply Sarlat, this commune is located in the Dordogne department and belongs to the region known as Perigord Noir. The medieval charm of Sarlat is evident in its well-preserved stone buildings, which have remained intact since the 14th century. At the heart of this historic town lies a magnificent Benedictine abbey that dates back to Carolingian times. The impressive Sarlat Cathedral, dedicated to Saint Sacerdos, stands tall as a testament to the town's rich religious heritage. Illuminated against a night sky, it exudes an ethereal beauty that captivates all who behold it. Sarlat owes much of its preservation and recognition to Andre Malraux, a renowned writer, resistance fighter, and politician who served as Minister of Culture from 1960 to 1969. His passion for restoring sites of historical significance led him to restore not only Sarlat but also numerous other landmarks throughout France. As you gaze upon this print by Salvator Barki from Fine Art Storehouse, you can almost transport yourself back in time and imagine what life was like during medieval France. With its inclusion on France's Tentative List for future UNESCO World Heritage site nomination, Sarlat continues to be celebrated for its architectural splendor and cultural significance.
