Description
Abri du Cap Blanc is located seven kilometers outside Les Eyzies, overlooking the Grande Beune Valley. The site dates back at least 14,000 years to the mid-Magdelenian period. The cave includes an exhibition of various archeological artifacts found on site during excavations in 1909. There is also a 14-meter-long sculpted frieze along the wall and an ancient human burial site.
