History

In 1893, the commune of Cabans was renamed Le Buisson. In 1960, Cussac and Le Buisson merged to form Le Buisson-Cussac. In 1974, the communes Cadouin, Le Buisson-Cussac, Paleyrac and Urval merged and formed the new commune Le-Buisson-de-Cadouin. Urval separated in 1989.

Cadouin Abbey (founded in 1115, dissolved in 1791) was formerly situated here.

gollark: The GPT-3 documentation says it doesn't know about anything past 2019, but there's no reason Codex couldn't use newer data.
gollark: Where you gave it a natural language command and it wrote bash code to hopefully do it.
gollark: It might be fun to use Codex to make that AI shell thing someone had.
