Fougueyrolles

Fougueyrolles is a rural commune in Nouvelle-Aquitaine nestled among rolling hills and farmland between two larger towns in Dordogne. The village sits across gently undulating countryside dotted with fields and small agricultural properties that define the local landscape.

Fougueyrolles developed through regional administrative reforms that reorganized southwestern France and shaped its current municipal structure. The village became part of the canton of Vélines through these successive changes that linked it to the modern French administrative system.

Farming and vineyard work shape how people here spend their days and connect to the land around them. This rural work defines the character of the village and ties residents to the changing seasons.

The village is easily accessible by local roads and sits conveniently between two larger towns for day visits. Basic services and local information are available at the town hall in the center of the community.

While many rural areas struggle with population decline, this village has maintained a stable community rooted in the region. This continuity allows traditional farming practices to remain alive and keeps the local culture intact.
