TITO BUSTILLO CAVE ART CENTRE

TITO BUSTILLO CAVE ART CENTRE

Discover
Prehistory

Description

Lately, dissemination and protection of Palaeolithic heritage are being main reasons to create museums and replicas beside the principal Cave Art sites in the world. The novel permanent exhibition in Tito Bustillo Cave Art Centre is the result of a daring effort to offer Prehistory to visitors on a catchy way. As you will see, the whole conception of the exhibition displayed inside is combining serious academic rigour with varied attractive museistic proposals.

Five different areas will conduce you to each different issue, including: the discovering of Tito Bustillo cave in 1968; the formation of its galleries as a part of a calcareous massif; the way of life of men and women during the Upper Palaeolithic; the techniques and purposes of Palaeolithic cave art, with a filmed projection of the Main Panel; and, finally, the hidden dangerous places with cave art that you never visit during your guided tour in the original cave.

Among all these displays the nice replica of the ‘Chamber of Vulvae’ is a remarkable item. It reproduces a main ensemble in the cave with schematic paintings representing female sexes, made 30.000 years BP.

Furthermore, other important archaeological exhibitions are offered here every season.

Finally, Tito Bustillo Cave Art Centre is the place where tickets for Tito Bustillo Cave and Ardines Cuevona are currently sold and booked.
