Description

A space dedicated to the discovery of local geology and the uses of stone in the commune. A model, explanatory panels, objects and display cases of rock samples and fossils will take you back to the lush forests of the Permian period (more than 250 million years ago) or to the ocean floor that covered the region in the Jurassic period (about 180 million years ago); all of which will help you to understand the geological fault of Meyssac and its impact on the landscapes, the flora and the architecture.
The "star" fossils of the museum:
- a group of langoustines which was the subject of a study by the Muséum national d'Histoire Naturelle describing a new species.
- A fish from the Brive basin dating from the Permian, the first of a new species, Briveichtys Chantepiorum.
Basement: exhibition of stone furniture, numerous panels documenting the theme of construction and access to the vaulted cellar.
