Peștera Coliboaia, Prehistoric cave art site in Măgura, Romania.
The cave contains numerous underground galleries with charcoal drawings of animals, including bison, bears, and rhinoceros heads depicted on the limestone walls.
Archaeological investigations in 2009 revealed cave paintings dating between 32,000 and 35,000 years before present, representing the Aurignacian and Gravettian cultures.
The Art Gallery section displays multiple animal representations created by early human inhabitants, providing insights into Paleolithic artistic expressions in Central Europe.
Access to the cave requires specialized diving equipment to navigate through chambers and a natural lake before reaching the elevated Art Gallery section.
The temperature-controlled environment of the cave has preserved the prehistoric artwork for millennia, making it a valuable site for studying early human civilization.
