Les abris sculptés de la Préhistoire

Il y a 15 000 ans, des abris sous-roche ont été sculptés de frises monumentales, baignés par la lumière du jour bien loin du monde souterrain des grottes. Le Roc-aux-Sorciers, la Chaire-à-Calvin, Cap Blanc et l'abri Reverdit sont les 4 exemples les plus emblématiques de cet art pariétal sous abri.
