The museum houses fossil remains (mammoths, mastodons, saber-toothed tigers, etc.) found at Chilhac and dating back 2 million years.
Located on a basalt organ cliff overlooking the river, the museum takes you back two million years in an hour. The first floor features southern mammoths and Auvergne mastodons, while the second floor provides information on other species discovered on the site: rhinoceros, zebra, red deer, hyena.... An educational booklet is available for children to enjoy a fun-filled visit.

C'est bien pour les grands, et si on s'intéresse aux mastodontes mais c'est très court.

Petit musée, qui a le mérite de faire découvrir ce que peu de gens savent.

J'ai découvert les mastodontes auvergnats qui passaient jadis en ces lieux
