    The stalactite cave is about 20 km from Besançon and belongs geographically to the foothills of the Jura Mountains. Definitely worth a visit. Stalagmites and stalactites can be admired in approx. 8 different halls. There is also an underground stream.
    This cave seems to be one of the lesser known. It was not necessary to pre-order tickets.

    If you want to venture underground, you've come to the right place.
    A 1200 meter long cave discovered in the 13th century, it has been visited since 1504, making it one of the two oldest tourist caves in the world.
    Its underground river, its dry gallery and its incredibly colorful geological formations will not leave you indifferent. Neither is the fact that the first cave bear skeleton was discovered there.
