100 million years told by stone Vachères travres to three topics: paleontology, flint, and traces of human occupation in stone.
In addition to the undeniable charm of the site, the village of Vachères attracts attention for its communal museum. Housed in the old school, the Pierre Martel Museum was created to preserve a heritage of the highest interest. Two masterpieces have contributed to its reputation: the Bachithérum, an animal fossil of more than 30 million years, and the Warrior of Vachères, a remarkable Gallo-Roman statue. A must for lovers of paleontology, prehistory or archaeology...
