The provided research materials do not contain specific information regarding Rue des Halles in Périgueux, France. The available texts focus on other landmarks and general tourism services in the city. One source details the opening hours and contact information for the Destination Périgueux Tourist Office, located at 9bis Place du Coderc, but does not mention the street. Another source highlights the Grand Périgueux Tourist Office, the Pass Évasion, and the weekly market held on Monday mornings, along with visits to the Cathedral Saint-Front and Sainte-Alvère, but makes no reference to Rue des Halles.

A third source focuses on the Cathédrale Saint-Front, describing it as the dominant landmark of Périgueux. It features five Byzantine domes and a white stone tower, which inspired the design of the Sacré-Cœur in Paris. The original Romanesque church dates to around 1120, but the current domed structure was created in the 19th century by architect Paul Abadie. It is described as a surprising and rewarding sight, visible from most of the city, and serves as a recommended starting point for a day trip.
