The "Grottes de Matata" are situated on two different levels of the cliffs. An internal staircase leads you to a cave on the lower level called “Lovers’ cave”. You will be impressed by the rustic character of this site. Peek behind the secret door carved out of the rocks…it was here, according to the legend, that Charlotte de La Trémoille, the princess of Condé, hid her illicit relationship with her young page, Permilhac de Belcastel...

You will see, in ten such caves, a reconstruction of life in the caves, from prehistory to the present day.
