In the Quercy, black truffles, foie gras, free-range lamb, fruits and vegetables, Cahors wines, goat-milk cheeses, and other high-quality local products enchant the stalls of the markets. A pleasure for the eyes, the nose and the mouth! These colourful picturesque markets offer an authentic and warm atmosphere. The markets of Cahors, Figeac, Gourdon, Martel and Saint-Céré are among the traditional markets to be discovered in the Lot.
In winter, the two villages of the Regional Nature Park of the Quercy Limestone Plateaus, which are Lalbenque, capital of the Quercy black truffle, and Limogne-en-Quercy, attract a large number of gastronomes with their magnificent truffles markets. An event not to be missed: the Truffle festival in Lalbenque in January.
In summer, night markets take place in certain cities, such as Figeac, Gourdon, Saint-Céré and Souillac. They have everything to please the visitors!
