The cave incorporates several large galleries with over 300
paintings and engravings dating to the Paleolithic era. These
works are between 32,000 and 30.000 years old and depict a

bears, owls, and mammoths.

The cavern revealed many traces of human activity, including
hearths, flintstones, and footprints. The cave is an outstanding
research facility for archaeologists because it was completely
undamaged by previous visitations.
The area was classified a historical monument because of
the national and international artistic and archaeological
attention it caused.
