Museum of the Aurignacian, organizing workshops to dive into the life of distant ancestors, with instructive visit
In 1852, a quarryman from Aurignac discovered by chance the entrance to a prehistoric shelter containing the bones of large mammals that are now extinct. The Aurignacian Museum exhibits the treasures thus found, witnesses of the life of Homo sapiens who lived in Europe 35 000 years ago! Get ready for a moving encounter with a long forgotten history. During the school vacations, workshops are organized to immerse you in the life of our distant ancestors. An instructive visit for the whole family.

Le musée regorge d'objet et l’accueil y est joviale.

Toutefois, la prise en compte des études de David BEGUN serait la bienvenue.
