Tourist Information

P.L. Dravert first studied the image in the grotto in 1926, during a walk he discovered it. It was found that 15 figures are depicted, of which 10 should be attributed to the image of people in different poses, and three figures undoubtedly belong to men, as they are equipped with phalluses. The meaning of the image has not been established. Perhaps it was something like a natural safe for the preservation of the image and was also considered a sacred place. When the researcher returned to the cave in 1927, the inscriptions were erased by people vacationing here. There is only a sketch left, now the images are completely lost.
