Wikipedia description:
Barbezieux-Saint-Hilaire (French pronunciation: [baʁbəzjø sɛ̃t‿ilɛʁ]) is a commune in the Charente department, Southwestern France. The commune was formed in 1973 by the merger of the former communes Barbezieux and Saint-Hilaire. With about 4,700 inhabitants, it forms the most important town in Southern Charente. Barbezieux is a fortified hill town on the historic route south west from Paris – Poitiers to Bordeaux – Spain, now served by the N10, which bypasses Barbezieux. The commune is listed as a Village étape. The town rises from narrow streets of unspoilt, typically Charentais buildings to the medieval chateau, which dominates the western approach.
