France
🎧 Listen to Introduction
The Vézère Valley has 147 prehistoric sites dating back to the Paleolithic period and 25 richly decorated caves. Particularly interesting from an ethnological and anthropological point of view, the cave paintings are particularly interesting from an aesthetic point of view, especially those of the Lascaux cave, which was discovered in 1940 and is of great significance for the history of prehistoric art. The hunting scenes show around 100 animal figures, which are amazing in their detail, richness of colour and lifelike quality.
