Did you know that the inhabitants of Cerca-la-Source are the Cercasolais. Located in the Center department, on the border with the Dominican Republic, this town has a name that recalls its Hispanic past ("Cerca" meaning close).

The Cercasolais live in an area of ​​savannahs and mountains, where livestock breeding is a central activity.

The Cercasolais identity is strongly imbued with this border culture, with constant exchanges and an often fluid mastery of binational realities.

The "Source" mentioned in the name refers to the numerous water resurgences in the region. To be Cercasolais is therefore to belong to a land of water and pastures, strategic for the surveillance of the national territory.

This original name perfectly reflects the fusion of cultures and the importance of natural resources in this part of the Central Plateau.
