FR224 - Sites mégalithiques de Carnac (1996)

The remains of megalithic civilizations (-5000 -2000) are scattered in the Department of Morbidhan and in the commune of Carnac. On the latter, there is a unique complex composed of three alignments, one of which (Le Ménec) presents an original composition consisting of its two enclosures and its rows of aligned menhirs. The complex composed of 4000 menhirs stretching over nearly 4 kilometers and 40 hectares is completed by a covered alley, a cromlech of isolated menhirs to the North and a very large tumulus to the South, a typical monument representative of Carnacean-type tumulus (125m x 60m x 12m high) and a corridor dolmen.
