Of the 63 famous people born in Bergerac, an unusual share are soldiers and sailors

Maine de Biran (French philosopher (1766-1824)) is the best known by our measure: 30 Wikipedia and sister-site articles in different languages. Next come Pascal Obispo and Pakito.

63 people born in Bergerac have a French Wikipedia article that confirms the town as their birthplace (and an English one that agrees, when there is one). Wikidata places 92 people here; the rest aren’t listed because an article names somewhere else or no town, or a check couldn’t be completed.

Among its famous people, athletes: 15 of the 63. That is 24% of the town’s list, against 19% across French towns.

Pierre Maisonnat, born in 1658. The youngest on the list was born in 2006.

People whose Wikidata birthplace is Bergerac itself, matched by its INSEE code (a commune merged into it counts when the dates allow), whose French Wikipedia article agrees, and their English article too when they have one. A hospital or neighbourhood recorded without its commune isn’t matched. People who only lived here, adult performers and people known mainly for crimes aren’t listed.

Their Wikidata birthplace may be a hospital, a neighbourhood or a wider area, another commune, or missing, or their articles may not name a birthplace. We only list people the sources agree on; editing Wikidata or Wikipedia changes this page at the next refresh.
