We saw in the advertisement that this prehistoric site also had children's activities, so we signed our 6-year old up and spent about 2½ hours in a learning/activity course. The staff was very nice and translated some of the lectures into English, but it was rather boring. I was disappointed because most of the activities amounted to a lecture, rather than more hands-on. Lots of teaching, but not much doing. If you speak French, its probably more interesting. I wouldn't recommend this place unless you are over-enthusiastic about prehistoric history, or have a lot of extra time. The price of 8€ /person is too high - there is not much to see here when compared to other activities and caves in the area. If you're not part of the course, there is only 1 basic exhibit, and a mediocre video. You can't even see the special rock, since its protected. There are better things to do in Lot.

(Translated by Google) This small but very well-presented site is primarily aimed at young people or those curious about local history, but adults who have retained their childlike wonder will also find plenty to enjoy. The materials are very well designed. It's well worth a visit if you have children under 14, as they will be captivated by the well-designed and engaging workshops. Don't hesitate to ask questions, as the instructors are passionate and highly knowledgeable about their subject. In short, a little local gem that I warmly recommend. (Original) Petit site très bien valorisé - s’adresse essentiellement à un jeune public ou des personnes curieuses de l’histoire locale, mais les adultes ne seront pas en reste non plus s’ils ont gardé leur âme d’enfant. Les supports sont très bien conçus. Mérite le détour si vous avez des enfants de moins de 14 ans, car ils seront alors émerveillés par les ateliers très bien conçus et animés - posez des questions parce que les animateurs sont des passionnés qui connaissent parfaitement leur sujet. Bref, une petite perle locale que je recommande chaleureusement.

(Translated by Google) A must-do with children. First, a short walk and explanations of the excavation site's area. But then, and most importantly, what's really interesting are the activities: learning about hunting weapons, painting like prehistoric people, musical instruments, and tanning. The staff is very dedicated, friendly, and professional. Be sure to arrive at the activity times. Highly recommended site. (Original) A faire de toute urgence avec les enfants. Au début petite balade et explications de la zone de fouille du site. Mais ensuite et surtout ce qui est très intéressant ce sont les activités pratiquées, apprentissage des armes de la chasse, peinture comme les préhistoriens , instruments de musique et tannerie. Le Personnel est très investi sympa et professionnel . Pensez bien à arriver aux heures des activités. Site Vraiment conseillé.

(Translated by Google) Young and old alike were delighted with our visit to the archaeosite. It's very different from other educational sites on prehistory. In addition to the explanations and the excavation site museum, we were shown during small workshops: - how humans hunted with and what types of weapons they used, including a spear throw and spear thrower. - the different types of musical instruments, with a demonstration and the opportunity for children to try them out. - cave painting techniques, where you can leave with your own drawing. Finally, the children participated in the pendant-making workshop (book in advance) and left delighted with their prehistoric necklace. In short, it's a great family activity and very fun for children. (Original) Petits et grands sont ravis de notre visite à l'archéosite. Très différent des autres sites pédagogiques sur la préhistoire. Outre les explications et le musée du site de fouilles, on nous explique lors de petits ateliers : - comment les hommes chassaient avec quels types d'armes avec un essai de lancé de sagaie et son propulseur. - Les différents types d'instruments de musique avec une démonstration et la possibilité de tester pour les enfants. On y - les techniques de peinture rupestre où on peut repartir avec son propre dessin. Enfin les enfants ont participé à l'atelier de fabrication de pendeloque (réserver à l'avance) et sont répartis ravis avec leur collier préhistorique. Bref à faire en famille, très ludique pour les enfants.
