Willée-sur-Roues is a commune in the Dordogne department in Nouvelle-Aquitaine in southwestern France. Most of the local population are either employed as coopers, or commute to nearby towns. It is one of the few Basque-speaking communes in northern Aquitaine. It is also known as "le petit hexagon" by local residents, due to the hexagonal shape of the village church; it is therefore an example of place-name synecdoche.
