    Tips

    September 7, 2023

    Located in Sainte Colombe de Villeneuve, they are natural, shaped 25 million years ago by an underground river. They allow us to understand the geology of the territory. There are three rocks in the caves, the limestone in which they were dug, the clay, insoluble which forms plugs or deposits and finally the calcite which is calcium carbonate which the saturated water deposits while evaporating. This material is the component of stalactites, stalagmites, columns, draperies and flows. It is made up of seven rooms, the Well room, the Ratepenado room, the Round room, the Columns room, the Marboutin room, the Statue room and the Source room. The constant temperature is around 14°C all year round.
