Canfranc Underground Laboratory

The Laboratorio Subterráneo de Canfranc (LSC) is a facility for Underground Science. It is conceived as a Consortium of the Spanish Ministry of Science and  Innovation, the Aragon Regional Government and the University of Zaragoza.

Located under the Pyrenees mountain El Tobazo, the over burden at the site provides 800 maximum meters shielding from cosmic rays and offers a low background environment for the next generation of experiments exploring the frontiers of particle and astroparticle physics.
