Mortagne-au-Perche, Medieval town in Normandy, France

The town extends across hills and plains of Perche region, featuring stone buildings in shades of pink, yellow, and ochre limestone throughout its streets.

The fortified settlement includes the Saint-Denis Gate, Saint-André crypt, and Notre-Dame church, with defensive walls dating from medieval times.

The town maintains its status as the black pudding capital of France, organizing international competitions to select exceptional preparations of this specialty.

The covered market provides local products while the France Service center at 22 Place du Général de Gaulle assists residents with administrative procedures.

Twenty-seven sundials decorate the facades across town, creating an outdoor collection of time-measuring instruments from different historical periods.
