While most of the Vézère’s caves contain engravings and paintings, unusually, this rock shelter contains only carved sculptures, shaped using simple flint tools some 14,000 years ago. The 40m frieze of horses and bison is impressive, but the modern museum detracts from the mood a bit. It’s 7km east of Les Eyzies. Tickets available on-site or at Font de Gaume ticket office.
