Helmets and protections are provided. Recommended sneakers or walking shoes. On the surface, a virtual tour experience in immersion in the quarries is offered to all in a room also hosting an exhibition (posters on various themes: history, geology, technique, legends and risks and hazards related to careers) The historical context of the quarries will be illustrated by the presentation of a scale model in the exhibition hall. External panels briefly detail the history of the buildings around the neighbouring Republic Square. The church, nearby, is open; 12th century construction illustrating the use of Lezennes stone The descent is not recommended for children under 6 years of age and people with difficulties in the descents and ascents of stairs.
