Site Type: Burial Chamber or Dolmen

Visited: Yes on 18th Jun 2007. My rating: Condition 5 Ambience 3 Access 5
Le Grand Dolmen de Bagneux submitted by greywether on 1st Jul 2005. Site in Pays de la Loire:Maine-et-Loire 49
Some statistics: 17.3m long x 5.4m max wide x 3.1m high. The antechamber adds another 4m to the length. It is covered with four capstones the largest of which is 7.6m long and weighs 86 tons. The large overlapping backstone is 7.3m long.
Truly massive and worth the price of admission. You don't (or didn't) have to eat at the cafe to see it but it adds to the fun.

La Vacherie dolmen submitted by theCaptain on 16th Jul 2014. This is a nice little site, and easy to find to the south of Distré, as it is signposted. The dolmen is in a little woodland clearing in a marshy area, which makes it nice and green and shady on this hot afternoon.
