Map of France in 1154, showing location of County of Périgord. The County of Périgord was a historical region of France. The name Périgord derived from the Gaul tribe of the Petrocorii, who resisted the Roman conquest.
The oldest documents mentioning it date to the 13th century, when it figured in the Albigensian Crusade; its Cathar castellan was Bernard de Casnac. Simon de Montfort took the castle and installed a garrison; when it was retaken by Bernard, he hanged them all.
