This huge cave , more than two kilometres long, has seven large halls open to the public. Its lower prehistoric chambers were discovered by teenagers in the 1920s. They contain prehistoric paintings and sketches, human footprints and limestone rock formations which include cave pearls. The huge Chapelle des Mammoths is the first stop, which contains impressive art that uses the contours of the rock perfectly. There are literally hundreds of drawings. The museum is good, displaying a diverse collection of artefacts.

Literally titled the 'Unusual Museum', it lives up to its name. Its creator, Bertrand Chenu, is humorous and inventive man who has transformed everyday objects, hanging them from the cliffside, into French phrases, puns or quirks of life. A strange but interesting detour from the usual tourist attractions in the region!
