Une visite pour le moins originale ! On visite comment sont fabriqué les tableaux de calcaire grâce à l'eau déposant soigneusement ce minéral goutte à goutte sur le moule préalablement conçu pour cet effet ! Intéressant à faire dans cette ville agréable où il y a beaucoup à voir !

Lors de notre visite, nous avons eu l'occasion de voir un artisan à l'oeuvre dans l’atelier. Nous avons adoré voir le bassin et l’écoulement de l'eau.

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.

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 !
Very warm and professional welcome, tour and the supports visit (film, and documents paper) allow you to understand the phenomenon. Beautiful creation
The technique is explained but computer standard lack of means for contemporary understand the technique, it is a shame...
