    • ArchéoParc is the archaeological animation park of PréhistoSite.


      In a green setting, the ArchéoParc allows visitors to immerse themselves in the heart of prehistory with reconstructions of nomadic habitats and the vegetation cover of the time. Animals play an important role with life-size reconstructions of prehistoric animals and real living aurochs.

      Every day, cultural mediators bring the gestures of our ancestors back to life through demonstrations of flint knapping and fire lighting and invite visitors to learn about 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.

      Holiday Workshop Details


      The visit to the ArchéoParc is completed by the museum where collections of archaeological objects from the excavations carried out on the archaeological site of the Pope's Caves since the 19th century are presented. Guided tours are offered every day of opening with visits adapted for children.

    I never knew that such carvings from this period existed. Excellent tour and in a very pretty village not far from where I was staying at Marpaps.
