    This site has been inhabited by humans for a very long time.
    Cut stone tools dating from the Paleolithic were found there.
    It is a rocky spur which rises more than 50m above the Loire.
    To the south of the rocky bar on the hillside an alignment of menhirs was erected in the Neolithic (perhaps 48 menhirs oriented west-east).
    Five menhirs were still present at the beginning of the 20th century, currently only 2 remain.
    The smallest located along the railway line. The largest is 100m further west at the edge of the vineyards.
