Er Grah's burial megalith is a Neolithic megalith belonging to the family of closed vault burials. Its size is impressive, even exceptional, since it is nearly 140 meters long! Unfortunately, it is truncated at both ends and partially shaved. Its slab covers a chamber with dry masonry walls that is the only known funeral structure in this enormous architecture. The burial mound is located on the same site as Er Grah's broken great menhir and the Merchants' table.

Ce monument est une tombe de personnages importants, à cause du matériel funéraire trouvé à l'intérieur qui provient de régions éloignées, et de sa taille. Il a été construit en plusieurs fois : en 4500 ans, puis en 4200 et en 4000, en réutilisant les matériaux. Les extensions extérieures en pierre font 140 mètres. Ce monument est juste visible de l'extérieur.

Le Tumulus d'Er Grah est situé dans une zone protégée et payante, avec le grand menhir brisé à proximité. C'est un très tumulus, qui reste assez bien conservé même si certaines parties ont disparu.

Il suffit d'emprunter le sentier qui part derrière le dolmen de la table des marchand pour arriver au tumulus avec accès libre. Il serait vieux de 4000 ans ce qui laisse rêveur. Cadre très intéressant sur plusieurs plans, historique, culturel, touristique, visuel et bien sur mémoire celtique.
With not flunking if you are in the region!
I highly recommended to make the visit with a guide to enrich your general knowledge and learn the history of the region from the brittany.
beautiful square, attractive, you can imagine work and the determination that it was necessary to build kind of the site, absolutely.
