Abri Cro-Magnon

  • Archaeological sites, ancient and prehistoric
Route de la gare, 24620 Les Eyzies
The emblematic place of discovery that lent its name to the first modern human species: Cro-Magnon. Discovered in 1868 by Louis Lartet, this revelation had countless repercussions on the development of modern archaeology and man's perception of his own species. This is an important historic and symbolic place where you may expand your own perception of our common ancestor. The fun, interactive tour combines modern technology (holograms, tactile screens and an immersive environment) with a traditional exhibition. Total immersion awaits you in the world of Cro-Magnon, from its first discovery to the very latest research.
Continue your tour through a natural setting along a sound-enhanced trail where you'll encounter animals that roamed the area at the time. When you reach the peak of the cliff, you'll enjoy a view over this prehistoric valley and its many points of interest.
