The Église Notre-Dame is the largest church in Bergerac, built between 1856 and 1865 in the Gothic Revival style by the architect Paul Abadie — the same man who later designed the Sacré-Cœur in Paris. The spire, at 81 metres, dominates the lower town skyline and is visible from the wine villages across the river.
The interior is more rewarding than the exterior suggests. Two Italian paintings hang in the side chapels: an Adoration of the Magi attributed to the workshop of Pordenone, and a Virgin and Child from the school of Ferrara — both 16th century, both unexpectedly good for a provincial parish church. The acoustics are excellent and the church hosts occasional concerts in summer.
