Cardoland

Cardoland features 88 life-sized dinosaur sculptures positioned along walking paths, complemented by an immersive cave system with prehistoric-themed frescoes and sound effects.

Founded by artist Raoul Cardo in 1981, the park emerged from his creative vision of crafting large-scale prehistoric animal sculptures using cement and iron wire.

The park maintains a strong educational focus through hands-on activities including fossil excavation simulations, ochre painting workshops, and modeling sessions for children.

The park operates from July through August, with admission prices of 18.80 euros for adults and reduced rates of 13.90 euros for children between 6 and 13 years.

A prehistoric circus performance presents 45-minute shows featuring Cro-Magnon fight demonstrations, fire performances, and interactions with animated dinosaur characters.
