Create your own pottery like our ancestors
This craft dates from the Neolithic, period during which the Prehistoric Man shaped clay containers to store and cook food.
Pottery is linked to the consumption of vegetables and cereals. Keeping them in containers will replace the simple pit dug in the ground exposed to animals and bad weather.
Cooking food will also be facilitated by the use of fire-resistant containers.
Beyond its utilitarian aspect, ceramic was also used for artistic purposes as evidenced by the figurines of "goddesses".
During this activity, children, from 4 years old, plays with the material and its imagination.
Shape your pottery using the Neolithic technique, decorate it and take it away at the end of the day.

Is it possible to conduct the prehistoric workshops?
Most of the prehistoric workshops are distant from 3 to 5 minutes walking.
There is many paths through the park. The schedules take into account movements between 2 nearby activities. The 2 workshops furthest from each other are “pottery” and “fire” but you will not take more than 5 minutes by walking slowly with a young child.

Can children go alone on workshops areas ?
Children are the responsibility of parents / carers and must be accompanied by at least 1 adult.
It is therefore not possible to buy a combined tickets for children and cave-only tickets for adults.
The Concept of the Park is to share family entertainment. Adults who do not wish to carry out the activities can take advantage of the relaxation areas near the entertainment venues.

Are the workshops canceled in case of rain ?
No, because all activities can be done under cover, with the exception of hunting with a spear workshop, but it is rare that the rain falls continuously... and nothing stops the valiant hunters!
