The vastest monolithic church of Europe

 

Do not miss this major visit offering an immersion of about 1 hour in the heart of the limestone for an exclusive discovery of the underground heritage of Saint-Émilion!

From the history of the founding monk of the village, to the digging of the surprising monolithic church, the visit will enable you to discover 4 monuments : the hermitage of Émilion, the Trinity Chapel and its medieval paintings, the catacombs as well as the underground church.

What are you looking for?

The quest for truth begins here.

Three Moustachus explorers, a legendary destination, and one question: Why is Saint-Émilion so fascinating?

In this offbeat documentary series, set off to discover a unique village, its hidden secrets... and the men and women who make it so rich. History, heritage, unusual anecdotes: let yourself be surprised.
