The menhir of Kerloas is supposedly the highest menhir in France (the world) still standing. Currently it stands at 9.50 m from the ground. The menhir's two bosses were once the object of a fertility rite. This megalitha of healing virtues was also lent. It is now one of the most visited sites in the country of Iroise. Please note: Kerloas menhir is classified as Historical Monuments since September 25, 1883.

Edifice datant de l'âge de bronze. A voir absolument! Il est en effet considéré comme le plus haut de France avec ses 9,5 mètres de hauteur, et encore, il a perdu plus de 2 mètres à cause de la foudre... C'est pour cela qu'il a un aspect biseauté en son sommet!

Il est considéré comme le plus haut menhir actuellement debout, avec ses 9,50 m au-dessus du sol. il serait d'ailleurs possible par temps clair de le voir des immeubles de Brest. A voir absolument si vous êtes dans le coin . C'est franchement impressionnant un tel gigantisme. Faut juste se poser la bonne question de savoir comment des gens ont réussi à apporter ce caillou jusque là.
