Situated 5km southeast of Vézelay on the D958, these ancient saltwater springs served as a salt production site in Neolithic times and later as a Celtic sanctuary (2nd century BCE) and Roman baths (1st century CE). Tickets allow access to the Musée Archéologique in St-Père, which displays finds from the site.
