ロクマリヤカーの天然記念物・トップ20

A site full of history, with a magnificent view of the bay of Quiberon. Be sure to respect the regulations of the place!

Interesting dolmen right by the sea.

The two comic book heroes Asterix and Obelix, who are very popular not only in France, discover Brittany and the huge stone rows from ancient times that can be found there on their very own "Tour de France" (under the title "Le Tour de Gaule", volume 5 of the French edition, but volume 6 in the German edition). The explanation given to the two travellers for the origin of the megalithic culture is, however, too simple: people say that the soil is so bad that only stones grow there; this can be read in the comic.

Breton curiosity to discover

The Alignement de Kermario may not have the most megaliths, but it does have the largest and most impressive ones. All megalithic fields are fenced off, but a beautifully laid out and well-signposted circular path opens up and connects the megalithic fields and allows you to see the stone witnesses of history from the path. Don't forget that it doesn't cost a cent to walk the paths.

Beautiful views of the islands of the Gulf of Morbihan.

These are the Alignments (rows of stones) de Kermario.

The Carnac megalithic fields consist of 2792 menhirs. When visiting, one should first visit the documentation center (Maison des Megalithes). There you will find an overview map. The rows of stones can be divided into several groups: Alignments de Menec, Alignments de Kermario, Alignments de Manio and Alignments de Kerlescan.
