Abri Pataud (Pataud Shelter)

The Abri Pataud has belonged to the Muséum since 1957 and has two areas for visitors to visit. The prehistoric site has been specially arranged for the public. Thanks to the different archeological layers, visitors can find their way around the timeline of civilisations which have succeeded each other under the Les Eyzies cliffs. They also reveal the changes in the landscapes over the millenia. Just a few steps away from the site is a Muséum built into the cliff face.
