Discover the Gaoutabry dolmen with the whole family in an archaeological dig workshop, where you can learn about the function of the site, its history and the daily life of Neolithic man.
Take the whole family to discover the prehistoric site of Gaoutabry, where children will have to identify the site using clues provided by the site's guardian. Armed with trowels, their mission will be to search for the archaeological remains left by the dolmen's builders in order to understand their daily lives. A surprise at the end of the visit!
The bonus: a 360° panoramic view of the Îles d'Or and the Monts toulonnais!
