Guided visit to Émilion's hermitage, the Trinity Chapel, the catacombs and the church carved into the rock · 45 min–1 h · by reservation

With a guide only: the doors of the four underground monuments open only with him or her. You see Émilion's hermitage, the Trinity Chapel with its medieval paintings, the catacombs and the Monolithic Church, the largest carved into rock in Europe according to the tourist office. The visit is in French; ask at the office for the printed Spanish translation before you begin. It leaves from the square of the Monolithic Church, in groups of up to 35, with no photos inside. Book at the online shop and arrive in good time: parking costs money, and if you are late you don't get in.
