Grotte de Labeil, Show cave in Lauroux, France.
The cave stretches within a 700-meter high dolomite cirque, featuring an underground river system that flows through crystalline formations in the Larzac region.
Archaeological excavations conducted in the 1960s revealed multiple layers of human occupation within the entrance gallery, with evidence dating back 5000 years.
The cave entrance previously served as a Roquefort cheese aging cellar, connecting the site to the regional dairy production heritage of southern France.
Visitors can access the cave from March to October between 10:00 and 19:00, and from November to February between 11:00 and 17:00, with guided tours available.
The underground river creates natural acoustic effects throughout the cave system, while colored lighting enhances the visibility of mineral formations.
