Guided tour of the Villars Cave

CavesGuided tours

Only 15 minutes from Brantôme, the Villars Cave is the only cave in Dordogne to combine natural concretions and rock paintings. A must visit of the Périgord Vert. The guided tour plunges you into a fascinating universe of stalactites, stalagmites and draperies. Midway through, a sound and light show traces the history of the cave over the millennia. An organ of discovery: admire the paintings left by prehistoric artists almost 20,000 years ago.

New 2026: the visit enriches with the opening to the public of the Hall of Chaos, a vast room richly concretized, making the experience even more impressive.
