A true invitation to a journey through time, this cave, now classified as geological heritage, was discovered 121 years ago! Discovered in 1902 during quarrying, the Grottes de Thouzon don't seem to have aged a day, thanks to the conservation work they undergo. Immediate development has preserved all the relics of time. And to the delight of the curious, they are open to visitors!

During your journey through the caves, you will have the opportunity to encounter small and large golden stalactites adorning the path, as well as fossils from an ancient underground river. To this day, it is the only naturally equipped cave for tourism in Provence!
