Unguided visit and discovery trail
The CAZELLE site features some very realistic re-enactments of prehistoric and medieval scenes with an audio background, as well as educational signs and panels that are easy to read.
Aims: the children are very quick to analyse and adopt the various topics discussed. The questionnaire presented as a game helps them along in the discovery and understanding of the site. It provides them with a method of analysis and observation.
