The Chauvet Cave in Ardèche, France, hosts some of the oldest cave drawings in the world. The cave has been sealed off to the public since its discovery in 1994, to prevent damage to the millenia old artworks.

The Syndicat mixte de l’Espace de restitution de la grotte Chauvet (SMERGC) and Google Arts & Culture partnered to digitally preserve this ancestral treasure and to give everyone an immersive access to the cave. Together we bridge 36.000 years of human history by joining state of the art technology and some of the oldest cave paintings left behind by our ancestors.
