Beaghmore stone circles are the mysterious witnesses of spiritual life dating back to the bronze age. Discovered in 1940 under the peat where they were buried, archaeologists date back to at least 1 500 BC.

In lande where alternating green and heather grass, 7 circles of different sizes and 10 rows of stones are carefully arranged and appear to speak an ancestral code in relation to the universe. Some see connections with astronomy, others think about rituals about fertility… A walk between these silent stones, one cannot stop giving them disturbing symbols, even if their meanings have lost over time.
