Samara estate, 15 km west of Amiens, takes you on a journey
back to Prehistoric times. Here you will discover how the
first men lived in their Prehistoric environment. You will
learn about their trades through demonstrations of flint cutting,
pottery, fire-making and weaving.
Two permanent exhibitions enable visitors to familiarise themselves
with key documents giving a better understanding of the history
of our distant ancestors: "Scenes from Prehistory" (guided
tours with the help of reconstructed scenes from the Palaeolithic
to the Gallo-Roman era), "600,000 years of history in the
Somme" (free visit of the major stages and upheavals of the
600 millennia preceding history and a century of archaeology
in the region).
