Mankind has built in rocks into a tuff cliff, stone originating from volcanic eruptions, a wren site: Jonas’ cave.
A long time ago it was a welcoming living place, a real town with its organization, its chapel and its castle. You can also discover its strange rock castle and a roman chapel which frescos are still visible.
