Description:

Terra Memoria is an interactive walk through the ages of the formation of the landscape of the Aveyron and its inhabitants.

The exhibition takes you from the very earliest ages of the Rouergue landscape through a series of exhibits and interactive displays, from the age of Dinosaurs to the human beings and their civilisations.  The tour culminates in a spectacular viewing platform overlooking the Bozouls Canyon, 300 feet below.

There are scale models and samples to illustrate the Earths formation and its constant evolution, showing how the landscapes we see today have been formed by glaciers and the combined effects of wind and water.

The exhibition website has much more information.
