A large, a really large stone slab as a cover – I was really astonished.
Here is the translation of the information panel:
The stone monuments of Kerguntuil are remains from the late Neolithic period (around 2000 BC). The passage grave, consisting of several stone slabs, and the dolmen are two very fine examples of megaliths (assemblies of large stones) erected in Western Europe during this period.
Did you know that these passages were rediscovered in the 1930s thanks to the dedication of local volunteers who excavated and restored the monument? It is very likely that our ancestors used these monuments as collective burial sites. Today, these remains bear witness to the architectural genius of these prehistoric people, but also to their worldview. Look at the engravings inside, on the pillars of the mound foundation burial: These pairs of raised protrusions, engraved in relief, are said to represent breasts and the Great Mother Goddess of the Neolithic period.

The roof table measures 5.75 m long, 3.55 m wide and 0.75 m thick. The orthostat on the north side measures 2 m high, 1.50 m wide and 0.20 m thick. It continues to the west with a dry stone wall which does not appear to be original. The orthostat on the west side is slightly domed. It measures 2.55 m wide by 2.305 m high with a thickness between 0.40 m at the base and 0.30 m at the top. The southern orthostat is backed by the slope. It measures 2.50 m wide, 2.40 m high and 0.35 m thick. The internal chamber measures 5 m long by 3 m wide with a height under the slab of 2 m

The dolmen and the covered alley of Kergüntuil (or Kergünteil) are two megalithic buildings separated by a hundred meters located in the town of Trégastel. The dolmen consists of three orthostats and a cover table. It is difficult to characterize its architecture because the building served as a dwelling then as a stable. It is backed by an embankment which perhaps corresponds to the remains of the original tumulus.
