This Magdalenian limestone rock shelter is renowned for its high-relief animal sculptures dating back approximately 15,000 years. Discovered in 1908, the site contains a significant frieze of deep carvings, primarily depicting horses and bison. Some of these sculptures reach lengths of up to 2.20 meters, representing a major achievement in Upper Paleolithic parietal art.
The site is also the location where the Magdalenian Girl was found, a nearly complete skeleton of a young woman. This find is recognized as one of the most well-preserved Upper Paleolithic skeletons discovered in Northern Europe. The shelter is part of the UNESCO World Heritage listing for the Vézère Valley and is classified as a French historical monument.
The art at this location is considered part of the Franco-Cantabrian cave art complex. The sculptures are carved directly into the rock face, showcasing the artistic techniques of the Middle Magdalenian period.
