The remains of the Château de Tayac built into the side of the cliff, have been transformed into a museum in a modern style by Jean-Pierre Buffi.
The National Museum of Prehistory holds an outstanding collection of artefacts dating from the Ice Age, which include paintings, carvings and replicas of ancient skeletons, and human prints. Its collection is one of the largest in the world, with a minute proportion of its total holdings being displayed at any one time.
