Pierre de Kazeg Ven

Site Type: Burial Chamber or Dolmen
Country: France (Bretagne:Finistère (29))
Visited: Would like to visit
Pierre de Kazeg Ven submitted by GinnynJohn on 25th Jun 2006. This stone is very difficult to locate - there are few references to it apart from old Breton postcards. It is the remains of a much larger stone that was used as a fertility stone - local women and even Anne of Brittany, all used it's powers of fecundity!
Apparently, viewed from above it is a very rude shape!
Fortunately for Ginny it did not work!
