Puy Jarrige II cave is located in the commune of Brive, in "Les Rebières". More precisely, it is located in a Triassic sandstone, on the right side of the Courolle valley, near the Corrèze river. There is a cave called Puy Jarrige I, but it has only archaeological deposits.
▶️Puy Jarrige II is a small cave barely 10 metres long. Two spaces can be distinguished: a shelter and a diverticulum. Apart from the Palaeolithic engravings, there are medieval remains in some parts of the cave.
