    Tips

    If you are interested in ancient history and megalithic monuments, you can visit the Dolmen de la Pierre Courcoulée, a stone tomb dating from the Neolithic period. You can admire the impressive puddingstone slab that covers the dolmen, measuring more than 4 meters long and weighing about 10 tons. The slab rests on four pillars of the same material, forming a chamber which was probably used for funerary rituals. The dolmen is one of the oldest and best preserved in Normandy, it has been listed as a historical monument since 1889. The Pierre Courcoulée Dolmen is a privileged place to get some fresh air and discover the local heritage.

      Dolme "Pierre Courcoulée": Classic megalithic plant. The dolmen consists of a huge capstone of so-called pudding stone resting on four pillars. The capstone measures about 4.0 × 2.5 meters and is well over a meter thick. The supporting stones protrude 0.3 to 0.5 m from the ground. The complex is very easy to reach via hiking trails.
