    It is the most imposing menhir in the region, standing almost 10 meters high. Its contour is 8.70 m on its widest part.
    According to legend, two brothers and their armies clashed there. The celestial hand separated the warriors, a rock then fell from the sky, and penetrated heavily into the earth. Since then, this menhir sinks steadily an inch per century; the day when the stone of the Champ Dolent is completely buried, it is said that the world will end.

    The good nine meter towering megalith is one of the largest in Brittany and stands on a hill southeast of Dol.
