Quercy, Historical province in southwestern France
Quercy extends across the department of Lot and northern Tarn-et-Garonne, featuring limestone plateaus, deep river valleys, and dense oak forests.
The region originated as the territory of the Celtic Cadurci tribe before becoming part of Aquitania Prima under Roman rule in the 4th century.
The area maintains strong wine-making traditions in Cahors, where vineyards produce deep red wines that require extensive aging in oak casks.
The region encompasses 6,987 square kilometers with major urban centers including Montauban, Cahors, Moissac, and Figeac distributed across the territory.
Traditional farmhouses display characteristic two-story structures with external staircases and numerous limestone dovecotes built between 1750 and 1850.
