A "perched" village is one built at the top and/or down the sides of a steep hill or promontory. One of the most famous villages of this type in France is the one called Rocamadour, built on a site about an hour's drive on winding, narrow roads southeast of the Château Montfort, which posted about a few days ago.
Here's Rocamadour from afar.
Below is a closer view.
