This is a site of late Paleolithic cave art in the Loth department in France. The cave consists of a 95m main cave and a 23m side cave, with a ceiling height of 3-6m. It is densely covered with stalactites from the entrance to the deepest part. A mural from the Aurignacian period (discovered in 1952) is found on the left wall near the deepest part, and features approximately 20 deer, goats, elephants and people painted with reddish brown or black outlines.
