The Monruz field station was the archaeological site of an Upper Palaeolithic hunters' camp that was found in 1989 in the Monruz district of Neuchâtel. Due to the extraordinarily well-preserved organic finds and the three Venus figurines from Monruz, the outdoor station is one of the most important Magdalenian find sites in Switzerland with an age of 16,500–15,200 years.
