The large broken menhir is one of the most famous stones because it is the most imposing ever worked by prehistoric man (20 meters long for about 280 tons...). Today, it offers to the eye the image of a broken giant, long called the Stone of the Fairy. It is an incredibly impressive obelisk that, standing up, must have been about 18 metres long, just like that! Smart: the Pass des Mégalithes allows you to benefit from advantageous rates to visit five unique sites in Morbihan (the Museum of Prehistory and the alignments of Carnac, the Cairn of Gavrinis, the Cairn of the Petit Mont in Arzon and the site of the megaliths of Locmariaquer).

impressionnant menhir...brisé ! 20 m mais couché ! sans doute dû à un séisme mais le prix d'entrée assez élevé explique peut être l'entretien du site

En 4500 avant JC, comment transporter ce géant de 20 mètres sur plusieurs kilomètres ? Avec les 18 autres disparus, était-ce une porte, une frontière vers on ne sait quoi ? L'histoire a encore beaucoup d'éléments à nous apporter...

Région toujours chargée d'histoire et ce lieu en particulier, qui nous replonge des siècles en arrière et nous incite à rêver et à se poser des questions sur l'existence de ces énormes "roches". Idéale visite pour les historiens !

Superbe site mégalithique grandiose notamment avec ce Grand Menhir Brisé qui avant de se briser en 4 morceaux, était le plus haut menhir connu de 20 m pour un poids de plus de 250 tonnes. Difficile de savoir, lorsque l'on n'est pas spécialiste, comment il a pu arriver à cet endroit.

A real leap in time that will make your imagination go… how T one which has been able to implement this enormous menhir!
The place has managed to preserve all its mystery…
