Égletons (French pronunciation: [eɡlətɔ̃]; Aus Gletons in Occitan) is a commune in the department of Corrèze, New Aquitaine, southwestern France.

The municipality is located on the former Route nationale 89 now the D1089: Égletons station has rail connections to Brive-la-Gaillarde, Ussel and Bordeaux.

The origin of the name Égletons (1075: from Glutonibus; 1251: from Glotos) is uncertain: In 1059 the city was the capital of the family of the Lords of Ventadour.

From their imposing fortress, a veritable eagle's nest on a rocky outcrop whose vestiges (recently restored and consolidated) still bear witness to the power, the Ventadour made the fortune of Égletons, ensured its prosperity and were at the origin of a rich tradition of art and culture, that of the la fin' amor: The Poetry of the Troubadours.

The fierce fighting, the numerous devastation and the courage of the inhabitants during the struggle for the liberation of the city, earned the medieval capital of the Ventadour, a citation of l'Ordre du Corps d'Armée with the awarding of the Croix de Guerre with silver-gilt star on 11 November 1948.
