Log Text: The new site is now open and receiving millions of visitors. The reconstructed cave is amazing, and the interpretation site full of information viewed using modern technology. Our visit was at 4pm and we wished it had been in the morning, with a break to recover from information overload! Apparently we can now log into the interpretation site when we get home, then catch up on what we missed.

Site Type: Standing Stone (Menhir)
Country: France (Bretagne:Finistère (29))
Visited: Yes on 5th Aug 2019. My rating: Condition 5 Ambience 4
Kerloas menhir submitted by thecaptain on 23rd Jun 2006. This is the biggest standing menhir in Europe, if not the world, at nearly 10 metres tall, and has lost the top 2 metres after a lightning strike!
The stone, which is not local and has been brought to this hilltop site from more than 2.5 kilometres away, has been beautifully shaped, and tapers both into the ground, and up to a point.
