This pseudo-megalithic site is located under the large Chêne des Missions. It was built by the missionaries of the Bièvres seminary in 1895. This menhir actually comes from the Bois de Vélizy while the triliths are artificial. The place remains impressive, a haven of peace in the middle of the forest to get away from it all during your training.

This oak was discovered by Breton missionaries in 1895. It is surrounded by 4 dolmens and a large menhir. The oak is 32m high. It is one of the most beautiful passages in the Meudon Forest.
