Grotte des Trois-Frères

( Cave of the Trois-Frères )

The Cave of the Trois-Frères is a cave in southwestern France famous for its cave paintings. It is located in Montesquieu-Avantès, in the Ariège département. The cave is named for three brothers (French: trois frères, pronounced [tʁwɑ fʁɛʁ]), Max, Jacques, and Louis Begouën, who, along with their father Comte Henri Begouën, discovered it in 1912. The drawings of the cave were made famous in the publications of the Abbé Henri Breuil. The cave art appears to date to around 15,000 years ago.
