Rouffignac Cave
Located in the middle of the Black Périgord, a few kilometres from the prestigious Vallée Vézère, Rouffignac is a huge cave.
Successively occupied by cave bears and prehistoric artists, it still beholds the spectacular testimonies of those passages.
More than 250 animal figures are scattered in this underground maze, where they were left 160 centuries ago.
Sat aboard an electric train, you will dive into the mysterious cave world
and discover the art of the prehistoric hunter-gatherers.
A privileged place of knowledge broadcasting, Rouffignac regularly receives scientific exhibitions.
