Troglodytes et Sarcophages

From the 5th to the 9th centuries, a Merovingian-era mine here produced stone coffins that were exported all over western France. Later residents created a series of open-air courtyards, the ceilings held up by columns of natural stone. Tours, in French with printed information in five languages, last one hour.
