ArchéoParc of Brassempouy Delve into the heart of prehistory in the Landes region

The ArchéoParc is the archaeological activity park of the PréhistoSite

Nestled in lush greenery, the ArchéoParc immerses visitors in the heart of prehistory with reconstructions of nomadic dwellings and the vegetation of the time. Animals play a significant role, with life-size reconstructions of prehistoric animals and real live aurochs.

Every day, cultural mediators bring to life the gestures of our ancestors through demonstrations of flint knapping and fire lighting, and invite visitors to try their hand at prehistoric hunting.

During school holidays (zone A), additional workshops (included in the entrance ticket) are also offered such as prehistoric painting, jewelry making or stone engraving.

Details of the holiday workshops
