Grotte des Demoiselles
The underground cathedral
Located on the heights of Saint-Bauzille-de-Putois, the « Grotte des Demoiselles » abounds of enormous stalagmites and stalactites, as well as of flows of calcites, of columns and of translucent drapery. Fascinating for many reasons and admired by potholers coming from the entire world, the cave is considered to be an underground cathedral.
Also named « La Grotte aux Fées », it is in one of the largest rooms of the cave ( depth : 50 meters, length : 120m, width : 50m)), that you will discover the spectacular concretion named after its shape : Madonna and Child.
