On the left bank of the Dordogne, 20km from Bergerac, the Rouzique paper mill is located west of Couze-et-Saint-Front. Thanks to the river's regular flow, the quality of its water and its location, this village has been the cradle of paper-making in the South-West since the 15th century. The presence of the La Rouzique paper mill is attested as early as 1530. Now the Écono-musée du papier chiffon, it is still in operation.
