Le Thor
Caves of Thouzon
Tourist service in Le Thor :
It's the only natural cave in Provence to have been developed for tourism! Discovered in 1902 during a quarrying operation, Grotte de Thouzon has remained untouched thanks to immediate development.
The cave has become an authentic eco-museum and an inexhaustible "library" on our planet's geological and biological past.
Its richness and diversity, located just 18 km from Avignon, make it a must-see.
Visitors walk along the fossilized bed of the underground river that once carved out this gallery. An enchanting, permanent spectacle of the mineral world, where the work of water has left its mark.
Souvenir store, snack bar, refreshment bar, ice cream, picnic area free, shaded parking.
