Cave famous for its cave art, with strata and stalagmites leading to the room featuring prehistoric animals

This vast natural gallery was discovered in 1951 and classified as a historic monument in 1961. For 100 metres, eccentric marine strata and stalagmites lead to the large room engraved 15,000 years ago. Various Upper Paleolithic animals are represented: horses, cattle, ibex, deer, bears, as well as signs unusual for the period. Bear scratches are visible on the rock. This is one of the oldest sites in the memory of mankind in terms of cave art (Middle Magdalenian).

Nous y sommes allés fin août, en famille à 15h. Arrivé après l heure de visite,nous étions les seuls. Du coup la guide a su adapter la visite pour nous permettre de la faire.
Étions seuls dans la grotte, quelle bonheur! Merci encore. Guide passionnée qui connaît ses sujets

Trés belle experience. Petite grotte avec de belles gravures. La guide était au top, très professionnelle avec de nombreuses explications et très dynamique. Nous étions un couple avec un bébé et nous avons été très bien accueillie et accompagné durant la visite.
