Domme (Occitan: Doma) is a town in the Dordogne department in Aquitaine in south-western France. The town, an example of the medieval fortified town known as a bastide, was founded by Philip the Bold in 1281. Graffiti by Knights Templar imprisoned here following the dissolution of the order in 1307 may be observed on the tower gates.
