The entrance to the Grottes de Bèze is known for a long time. A huge portal called Grotte de la Crétane which was used by the villagers and the monks to hide in times of danger. Nearby is the huge resourgence of the Bèze river, which flows through the cave, but is only accesible by diving through a sump. This was first done in 1954, and huge passage behind the sump discovered.
It took many years, but then an artificial entrance to the river cave was created The visit is made by boat. The cave is noted for its colourfull lights.
