Centre d'Interprétation du Roc-aux-Sorciers
Exceptional prehistoric site: a sculpted rock shelter, dated 15 years ago. For the sake of conservation, discover innovative and fun reconstructions at the Interpretation Center.
Roc-aux-Sorciers is a prehistoric habitat in a rock shelter, extending over more than fifty meters, at the foot of a cliff, and presenting monumental sculpted art, but also more discreet art in the form of engravings. . It is dated to the Middle Magdalenian, 15 years ago.
This site presents the longest (20 meters) prehistoric frieze preserved on site, sculpted, painted and engraved, which has survived down to our times. The works are of rare finesse. Classified as a Historic Monument in 1955, it is closed to the public for conservation reasons.
The Roc-aux-Sorciers Interpretation Center invites visitors to discover copies of this sculpted prehistoric frieze, highlighted by a multimedia sound and light show. In an exterior journey, the visitor is first invited to go back in time and then immerse himself in the daily life of the prehistoric artists of this era. Then, the visitor is led to discover the restitution of a “virtual” frieze, indoors, then a cast of the frieze is shown in daylight, ready to be “touched” for even more sensations…
