    The cave was used as a natural hiding place by the Huguenots during the Wars of Religion. It was used by the highway robbers and bandits known as the Trabucaires, who hid their loot here, and in 1945 much of the cave was discovered and has since been made easily accessible.

    Known by the specialists as the 'Cave with 100,000 Soldiers', the cave is a stunning mineral setting for a mysterious phenomenon known as the 'army of 100,000 Soldiers at the base of the great wall'! A formation unique the world over, so far, the only one that has been discovered as of the present time.
