The court yard is complete surrounded by an old stone wall, the big entrance gate is on the village square.

A brief history

The human presence in Sadillac is very ancient (carved stones, flint, ..) The very name of Sadillac comes from a Gallo-Roman villa belonging to one named Satellius; This name identifies a satellite, a veteran mercenary of the Roman armies rewarded for his loyal services. In April 1079, for the first time, the name Sadillac appeared in modern history


The monks cleared the forests to develop the land around them. On September 19th and 20th, 1304, the Archbishop of Bordeaux, Bertrand de GOT (who became Pope Clement V the following year) came to Sadillac to preach the word of God. Around 1340 the monks were replaced by a prior appointed alternately by the bishop of Agen.


At the end of the fifteenth century, a prior transformed the monastery into a priory. On August 8, 1565, the whole court of France crossed Sadillac on the road from Lauzun to Bergerac. There are Catherine de ‘Medici, Charles IX., Princes, lords and servants, guards and escorts with carriage horses and carriages, nearly 6,000 persons. Four years later, in May 1569, a Protestant army from Bergerac attacked the town of Sadillac and “after a terrible battle” captured it and shattered the houses, blew up the church and kept only the South wall as a point of support for the garrison installed in the priory.  


The town of Sadillac never recovered from this fatal day, the church was rebuilt only about forty years later, at the beginning of the seventeenth century. The priory, now called Chateau de Sadillac, was sold as national property in 1792.


Een beknopte geschiedenis

De menselijke aanwezigheid in Sadillac is erg oud (gebeeldhouwde stenen, vuursteen, ..) De naam van Sadillac komt van een Gallo-Romeinse villa die toebehoorde aan een genaamd Satellius; Deze naam identificeert een satelliet, een doorgewinterde huurling van de Romeinse legers die wordt beloond voor zijn trouwe diensten. In april 1079 verscheen de naam Sadillac voor het eerst in de moderne geschiedenis

De monniken hebben de bossen gekapt om het land eromheen te ontwikkelen. Op 19 en 20 september 1304 kwam de aartsbisschop van Bordeaux, Bertrand de GOT (die het jaar daarop paus Clemens V werd) naar Sadillac om het woord van God te prediken. Rond 1340 werden de monniken vervangen door een prior die beurtelings door de bisschop van Agen werd aangesteld.

Aan het einde van de vijftiende eeuw veranderde een prior het klooster in een priorij. Op 8 augustus 1565 stak het hele hof van Frankrijk Sadillac over op de weg van Lauzun naar Bergerac. Er zijn Catherine de ‘Medici, Charles IX., Prinsen, heren en bedienden, bewakers en begeleiders met koetspaarden en rijtuigen, bijna 6.000 personen. Vier jaar later, in mei 1569, viel een protestants leger uit Bergerac de stad Sadillac binnen en 'na een verschrikkelijke veldslag' veroverde het de stad en vernielde de huizen, blies de kerk op en behield alleen de zuidelijke muur als steunpunt voor het garnizoen. geïnstalleerd in de priorij.

De stad Sadillac is nooit hersteld van deze fatale dag, de kerk werd pas ongeveer veertig jaar later herbouwd, aan het begin van de zeventiende eeuw. De priorij, nu Chateau de Sadillac genaamd, werd in 1792 verkocht als nationaal bezit.
