Grotte de Saint-Michel-Archange

The cave extends through multiple chambers within the mountainside, featuring natural limestone formations and religious frescoes along its passages.

Archaeological excavations revealed continuous human presence from the Early Neolithic period through the Middle Bronze Age, with significant religious adaptations in Medieval times.

The cave contains Medieval frescoes depicting religious scenes and a stone altar where local communities gather for traditional ceremonies and celebrations.

Visitors must schedule appointments in advance to access the cave, which maintains a constant temperature of 15 degrees Celsius throughout the year.

The cave sits 750 meters above sea level along the Garga stream valley, containing both natural geological formations and human-made religious structures.
