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.

Une exposition époustouflante avec des pièces dans un super état. On en apprend plus sur la vie il y a 2 millions d'années. L'accueil est super, allez-y !
