La Roque Saint-Christophe

Highlight • Historical Site

The road which passes at the bottom of La roque Saint Christophe and which runs along the Vézère is really pleasant. We are in the "valley of man" which owes its name to its concentration of Paleolithic sites.

Abri de La Madeleine

Highlight • Cave

La Madeleine is a settlement site in present-day France that was used for thousands of years up until the early modern period. It was laid out about 5 km north-east of Les Eyzies-de-Tayac-Sireuil on a narrow loop of the Vézère.
For the Upper Palaeolithic period of the Magdalenian period, this important find site acts as a type locality. It is located in the lower abri (rock overhang) below the chapel dedicated to Saint Magdalene of the troglodyte village.
Around 17,000 years ago, Cro-Magnon people settled in the rock shelters beneath the south-facing cliffs of La Madeleine near the River Vézère. These offered natural protection against the effects of the weather, and the southern orientation warmed the settlement site.
The emergence of the troglodytic settlements on the cliffs of La Madeleine in the 8th century has been proven.

Les Eyzies-de-Tayac

Highlight • Historical Site

Welcome to the capital of prehistory! This is the nickname given to this modest village which follows the course of the Vézère. It must be said that the extraordinary sites that you can visit are numerous.

In addition to the very richly supplied national museum, I encourage you to go to the Pôle de la préhistoire. Building entirely dedicated to this science and free. Find out about all the prehistoric marvels that can be admired in and around the town. They are not missing.

It is not without reason that the Vézère valley has been nicknamed the valley of man.
