PALEONTOLOGICAL SITE OF ANGEAC-CHARENTE

In 2010, the Audoin quarry emerged as one of Europe's most important deposits of dinosaur bones. The first digs unearthed hundreds of pieces, including an extraordinary 2.40 m long femur from a sauropod dating back 130 million years. The excavation campaigns are described on the site through a self-guided, interactive tour that places the discoveries in the light of their historical context. In summer, guided tours of the site are offered, as well as paleontology workshops for children.
