An underground universe made of water and stone to discover in Saint-Nectaire.
Since last year, a new tour has been on offer to discover this underground world of water and stone. Visitors can look back over 200 years of specific know-how in exploiting bicarbonate-rich waters for artisanal purposes. The tour takes in a modelling workshop dedicated to creation, manufacturing workshops enhanced by multimedia content, an area showcasing family archives and historical artifacts, and the innovation room, where original creations and experiments are presented.

Visite très intéressante et très nature de ce site souterrain.
Guide très agréable qui connaissait bien son sujet.
On apprend plein de choses et les fontaines pétrifiantes n'ont plus de secret pour nous !

Le seul bémol est certainement le prix des souvenirs en fin de visite, qui sont fait grace à la force de la nature, dommage car nous serions facilement reparti avec quelque chose si le gérant faisait un geste.
