CANDAMO INTERPRETATION CENTER
Go there and contact
The cultural centre of Candamo, housed in a former palace, houses the centre of interpretation of the cave where you can observe a small scale reproduction of the Peña. It is interesting to go there before the visit in situ, because the original paintings are damaged and difficult to discern in the cave itself, while the colours have obviously been accentuated on the reproduction. You can thus exercise your eye and do nothing. The most important panel consists of over 50 figures, the oldest of which is more than 30 000 years old, that is, a age comparable to the paintings of the cave of Chauvet. The most recent bulls are 10 000 years old. At the top left of the panel, anthropomorphic figures are noted.
Two other rooms exhibit photographs of the other caves in the region as well as a reproduction of the main panel of the Grotte cave.
