First-ever colors

-
As primeiras cores

Imagine a time when colors were born from the earth and cave walls told stories of great animals. That is the magic of cave painting, and at PAAR, we invite you to discover it with your own hands.

In this experience, designed for both families and adults, you will use natural pigments such as iron oxide or charcoal, and you will even be able to grind them using authentic hand-mills, just as they did thousands of years ago. We will talk about mammoths, bison, and other animals from the most famous caves, such as Altamira or Lascaux, as well as the enigmatic drawings appearing in recent years across the Galician mountains. An opportunity to try the very first art of human history.

Night of Legends at PAAR

Visita nocturna PAAR

Nights at PAAR offer a unique perspective on prehistoric art. Come and find out why night is the best time to see our petroglyphs, under the stars and the light of the moon.

This is a one-of-a-kind experience that combines a nocturnal viewing of the Park’s most iconic rocks—such as the Laxe dos Carballos—with a journey through oral traditions, myths, and legends linked to the carvings and the figure of the deer.

How did we dress in Prehistory?

Did we go around naked and barefoot?

Did you know that some of the earliest sandals ever found date back to 3500 BC?

Come and experience what it would be like to make your own garment using a horizontal loom, similar to those used in prehistoric times. Not only will you get to experience weaving with a wooden needle, but you will also learn about the fabrics and materials used during that era.
