    The Wéris Megalithic Field presents a unique and unusual arrangement of dolmens and menhirs made of conglomerate (a type of natural concrete). It extends over a length of 8 km and invites you to explore it more closely. The stone witnesses of the past date back to the Neolithic period and are so impressive that they have been given their own names: Pas de Bayard, Lit du Diable,...

      The Weris dolmen is the best preserved in Belgium, along with the nearby Oppange dolmen. It is right next to the road from Weris to Barvaux, about 600 meters northwest of Weris. There is a parking lot across the street.
      The total length of the system is 11 meters. The dolmen has a rectangular burial chamber measuring around 6 x 1.70 metres. The larger of the two capstones is broken and is estimated to weigh about 30 tons.

        The dolmens of Wéris and d'Oppange are located here at a stone's throw from each other.
        Even small walkers can be taken back thousands of years in time. Respect both locations. Under this dolmen lie some 29 human sacrifices.
        Approach the Zielgat, the round opening in the gate of the dolmen, with caution, you never know.
