Our story about Pech Merle Cave, after visiting this Paleolithic cave sanctuary in June 2023.
Most of our information about Pech Merle comes from the works of Michel Lorblanchet, a leading French specialist in the field of Paleolithic art. Now retired, he was formerly the Director of Research at the French National Centre for Scientific Research and curator at the Pech Merle Cave and Museum.
