Discover preventive archaeology! After a presentation of the Abbey, the children conduct an investigation. Divided into small groups, they carry out an excavation to reveal the site's buried secrets.

During this workshop, students learn about preventive archaeology through three questions: “Where and when are excavations carried out?”, “What do archaeologists do?” and “What do archaeologists find?”
After a presentation of the monument, they are divided into small groups around excavation pits to discover the buried secrets of the Abbey.

Reservation required.
