Bournat park

Bournat Park is an ecomuseum and amusement park in Le Bugge that stretches across several hectares along the Vézère River. The site features reconstructed streets with stone buildings and structures that portray life around 1900.

The park was established in 1992 and preserves regional craftsmanship traditions through reconstructed scenes from the early 1900s. The site focuses on historical trades like blacksmithing and cutlery making that were typical of the Périgord region.

Visitors experience traditional craftsmanship through live demonstrations where artisans show how people worked in trades like baking, milling, and jam making. The workshops display daily practices that shaped life in this region long ago.

The park is easy to explore on marked paths and offers various stops for a tour ride on the Stanley Mountain Wagon. Visitors should wear comfortable shoes since the grounds require walking and some areas may have steep paths.

A unique feature is the Stanley Mountain Wagon, a vehicle designed in the style of early American transportation that carries visitors around the grounds. This unusual transport adds a playful element to the site beyond simple historical recreation.
