Welcoming visitors with disabilities

• People with reduced mobility

  70 % of the park is accessible to people with reduced mobility. Some paths in the Village have steep slopes and are therefore not recommended for wheelchair users or people with reduced mobility.
  It is easy to travel along the main street, however access to some of the craftspeople’s houses may be difficult, as may access to the harbour on the Garonne riverbank.
  The upper part of the village, where the bronzesmith, sanctuary, relics and sacred spring are located, is difficult to access due to the steep slopes and bumps.
  If you are accompanied by a physically fit person or have an electric wheelchair, the vast majority of the visit is manageable.
  The lecture hall, projection room, restaurant, relaxation area and toilets are all wheelchair accessible.

• Deaf or hearing-impaired visitors

  During the visit, you will find elements that are accessible to everyone.There are explanatory signs dotted along the path that will provide you with written information, descriptions and explanations to help you understand this period of history.  Not forgetting the continuous, highly visual and multi-sensory display put on by our craftspeople and hosts throughout the visit

• Visitors with mental disabilities

  The Gallic Village offers a wide range of attractions, and you will find a variety of information channels and multi-sensory features that make it easy to understand the content. This can take the form of written information, or the human interaction that is the basis of any visit to our site.

• Visually impaired visitors

  At the Gallic Village, everything is sensed and felt. The very essence of the visit is based on interaction. Our craftspeople, guides and hosts bring this timeless place to life. Here, all your senses are called upon: as soon as you pass through the fortified gates, you will hear the sounds of nature, the wind in the foliage, the birdsong; then you will enter the first house, where the woodworker is busy creating a piece of furniture.  You will hear the sound of the wood file and the axe splitting the wood, and his descriptive explanations will transport you into this very special world. At 4 pm, our guide will share their knowledge of the era, and you will discover the daily life of the Volcae Tectosages who occupied this territory over 2,000 years ago

Welcoming Non-French-speaking visitors

Visiting a site and understanding the history of a country without speaking the language can be difficult. The Gallic Village is working on reducing the language barrier by developing various tools available to all visitors.
