| Eassie Stone | Class II Pictish Symbol Stone | Scotland | Angus | Visited | 30th Jun 2024 | 4 | 4 | 4 | What a great setting in the ruined church. 5 for ambience if it weren't for the (necessary) glass box. | ||
| Glamis 2 | Class I / Class II Hybrid Pictish Symbol Stone | Scotland | Angus | Visited | 30th Jun 2024 | 4 | 4 | 5 | Arrived during the service at the church, so we didn't feel like we could ask about entering the manse grounds. | ||
| Blackgate of Pitscandlie | Stone Circle | Scotland | Angus | Visited | 30th Jun 2024 | 2 | 2 | 4 | Visited early on a Sunday and didn't see anyone around, so we had to be content with a view from the driveway. | ||
| Aberlemno | Standing Stones | Scotland | Angus | Visited | 30th Jun 2024 | 4 | 4 | 5 | A highlight of our trip to Scotland. After seeing many Pictish stones in museums, it was great to see some in almost their natural setting. | ||
| Carsegownie Cairn | Cairn | Scotland | Angus | Visited | 30th Jul 2023 | 4 | 3 | 4 | Not much to see. Fortunately we were there on a quiet morning, but I imagine parking without disrupting traffic could be a challenge on a busy day | ||
| Tealing | Souterrain (Fogou, Earth House) | Scotland | Angus | Visited | 30th Jun 2024 | 4 | 5 | 4 | My first visit to a souterrain. Just off the road from Dundee to Aberlemno, so we had to stop by. | ||
| National Museum of Scotland (Pictish Stones) | Museum | Scotland | Midlothian | Visited | 27th Jun 2024 | 5 | 5 | 5 | First in person view of Pictish stones. I eventually found the ones I was looking for, but they are scattered through several rooms on two floors of the museum. | ||
| National Museum of Scotland (Early Christian Stones) | Ancient Cross | Scotland | Midlothian | Visited | 27th Jun 2024 | 5 | 5 | 5 | |||
| National Museum of Scotland | Museum | Scotland | Midlothian | Visited | 27th Jun 2024 | 4 | 5 | 5 | Lots of very interesting and important prehistoric artifacts, but it is very hard to find specific items due the the organization of the floors. They are laid out according to a curator's whim of what "theme" the artifact falls unter, rather than chronological. There were carved stone balls in at le... Read More |
||
| McManus Galleries | Museum | Scotland | Angus | Visited | 28th Jun 2024 | 5 | 5 | 5 | A wonderful local museum in a grand old building. The prehistoric collection is informative and well laid out. The rest of the museum is eclectic and interesting. | ||
| Monk's Well, St Andrews | Holy Well or Sacred Spring | Scotland | Fife | Visited | 31st Jul 2023 | 5 | 5 | 4 | Very nice setting at the edge of the cemetery. Do watch out for the statues? of angels in the vicinity. | ||
| The Blue Stane (St Andrews) | Standing Stone (Menhir) | Scotland | Fife | Visited | 28th Jul 2023 | 5 | 2 | 5 | Well, at least it beats London's stone... | ||
| Lundin Links | Stone Circle | Scotland | Fife | Visited | 27th Jun 2024 | 4 | 4 | 3 | Took a picture over the wall of the cottage to the west. Be sure to ask permission, the residents are kindly but do not want people climbing over their wall to access the stones. | ||
| Well Cave (East Wemyss) | Cave or Rock Shelter | Scotland | Fife | Visited | 27th Jun 2024 | 4 | 3 | 4 | Alas, the mouth of the cave is quite covered, the lawn in front of it is also quite overgrown. Thanks to TIme Team we can still imagine what it looks like inside. | ||
| Jonathan’s Cave | Cave or Rock Shelter | Scotland | Fife | Visited | 27th Jun 2024 | 4 | 4 | 4 | Barred off like the other caves in the area. | ||
| Court Cave | Cave or Rock Shelter | Scotland | Fife | Visited | 27th Jun 2024 | 4 | 4 | 5 | When we unexpectedly realized our deviation from the gps route led us through Wemyss, we had to pay the caves a visit. | ||
| West Kennet Avenue | Multiple Stone Rows / Avenue | England | Wiltshire | Visited | 24th Jun 2022 | 3 | 3 | 5 | Unfortunately we were able to spend all of a minute or two here before having to head back to London. | ||
| West Kennett Long Barrow | Long Barrow | England | Wiltshire | Visited | 24th Jun 2022 | 4 | 5 | 2 | As spectacular as expected. Great to visit a chambered tomb that still has its covering of earth. | ||
| Silbury Hill | Artificial Mound | England | Wiltshire | Visited | 24th Jun 2022 | 5 | 3 | 5 | Somewhat disappointed that there is no pedestrian access, but it is understandable. | ||
| Avebury | Stone Circle | England | Wiltshire | Visited | 24th Jun 2022 | 4 | 4 | 5 | Alas, due to rental car problems we had all of 45 minutes to explore the whole Avebury area. I only got to see 1/4 of the circle and we had to leave. | ||
| Uffington White Horse | Hill Figure or Geoglyph | England | Oxfordshire | Visited | 24th Jun 2022 | 4 | 5 | 3 | We just caught oblique glimpses of it from the road below. Once at the horse itself, it is surprising just how small the cuts in the turf are. I was expecting them to be measured in yards, but instead you could measure them in feet, or inches in some places. I'm sure there are better places to vi... Read More |
||
| Uffington Castle Neolithic long barrow | Long Barrow | England | Oxfordshire | Visited | 24th Jun 2022 | 1 | 3 | 3 | The barrow is only visible if you know exactly where to look and what you are looking for. | ||
| Uffington Castle | Hillfort | England | Oxfordshire | Visited | 24th Jun 2022 | 3 | 4 | 3 | Visited during our brief tour of Wiltshire. Would have liked to walk around the circumference. Next time... | ||
| Wayland's Smithy | Long Barrow | England | Oxfordshire | Visited | 24th Jun 2022 | 4 | 4 | 3 | A must see on our day out from London to Avebury. When we got there there was a grade school outing having lunch on the barrow. It was fun to see the kids playing around on what to them must have just been another field trip, but for us was a (possibly) once in a lifetime visit. | ||
| Lambourn Seven Barrows | Barrow Cemetery | England | Berkshire | Visited | 24th Jun 2022 | 4 | 4 | 4 | On the way to Weyland's Smithy, stopped by this group to see our first barrow in Britain. Peaceful setting, and a nice taste of what was to come in Wiltshire. Would have like more time to be able to explore the different barrow types here. | ||
| Chemin des Collines Menhirs | Stone Row / Alignment | Switzerland | Wallis | Visited | 21st Aug 2021 | 4 | 4 | 5 | A pleasant little park - I am curious if these menhirs, the dolmen, and the cists are still relatively in situ... | 19 | 2 |
| Sion Steinkistengrab | Burial Chamber or Dolmen | Switzerland | Wallis | Visited | 21st Aug 2021 | 3 | 3 | 5 | Pretty much as expected - a pleasant park with this dolmen, a stone row, and two cists. | 19 | 1 |
| Crête-des-Barmes, St. Leonard | Rock Art | Switzerland | Wallis | Couldn't find | 21st Aug 1999 | We approached the site from the south aiming for 46.265, 7.42044, but those coordinates were located seemingly on the face of a cliff. Further research is needed before the second attempt. Perhaps the pictures are of a vertical face best accessed from the N/NW. | 19 | 4 | |||
| Steinreihe Jonental | Stone Row / Alignment | Switzerland | Zürich | Visited | 16th Mar 2019 | ||||||
| Steinreihe Sarhau | Stone Row / Alignment | Switzerland | Zürich | Visited | 16th Mar 2019 | ||||||
| Museum Schwab | Museum | Switzerland | Bern | Visited | 13th Oct 2019 | ||||||
| Steinreihe Reservoir | Stone Row / Alignment | Switzerland | Zürich | Couldn't find | 17th Feb 2019 | I was looking for a reservoir (English) when Reservoir (German) could mean water tank. I was a bit confused by the lack of a Stausee in the area. I think the row may be in the bit of woods that extend to the west just after the Y junction i the path. | 11 | ||||
| Hornfels | Hillfort | Germany | Baden-Wuerttemberg | Visited | 30th Dec 2020 | 2 | 3 | 3 | Found it on our second visit. The first time we were looking too close to the rocky cliffs. | ||
| Heidenstein (Schwörstadt) | Burial Chamber or Dolmen | Germany | Baden-Wuerttemberg | Visited | 26th Dec 2020 | 2 | 2 | 5 | We first read the information panel, outlining the excavation and finds, and then on the "inside" of the dolmen we found some freshly laid flowers, which made the dry numbers or excavated skeletal remains in the information seem a little more human. | ||
| Hunnenstein (Dossenbach) | Standing Stone (Menhir) | Germany | Baden-Wuerttemberg | Visited | 26th Dec 2020 | 3 | 4 | 4 | |||
| Der Stein Dossenbach | Standing Stone (Menhir) | Germany | Baden-Wuerttemberg | Visited | 26th Dec 2020 | 4 | 4 | 3 | Made another attempt to find the menhir, this time in winter... Success! Note the updated coordinates, as you need to get pretty close to see the stone in the brushy woods. | ||
| Croix Madame | Barrow Cemetery | France | Bretagne:Ille-et-Vilaine (35) | Visited | 19th Jul 2020 | 2 | 3 | 3 | |||
| Menhir de la Pointe de Beg er Vil | Standing Stone (Menhir) | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 18th Jul 2020 | 4 | 4 | 4 | The description said that this was all the way at the end of the point, but the monument there is a modern commemorative plaque. On the way back we saw this one, and it matched the description. | ||
| Kerbourgnec Alignements | Stone Row / Alignment | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 18th Jul 2020 | 2 | 4 | 4 | The tide came in while we were exploring elsewhere, but it was still nice to see some parts still above water. | ||
| Grabhügel Grüthau | Artificial Mound | Switzerland | Zürich | Visited | 1st Jan 2019 | 8 | |||||
| Le Tribunal | Stone Circle | France | Bretagne:Ille-et-Vilaine (35) | Visited | 19th Jul 2020 | 3 | 4 | 2 | Hard to imagine that they would remove several stones to put in a path so the tourists could see the megalithic structures! | ||
| Dolmen Ouest de la Croix de Saint-Pierre | Burial Chamber or Dolmen | France | Bretagne:Ille-et-Vilaine (35) | Visited | 19th Jul 2020 | 4 | 4 | 2 | Restored but still impressive (or impressive because...?) | ||
| Croix St Pierre tertre | Long Barrow | France | Bretagne:Ille-et-Vilaine (35) | Visited | 19th Jul 2020 | 3 | 4 | 2 | |||
| Ciste de Croix Saint-Pierre | Cist | France | Bretagne:Ille-et-Vilaine (35) | Visited | 19th Jul 2020 | 3 | 4 | 2 | This structure looks like it could have come right out of any of the village cemeteries around here, with its headstone and low walls. It was even sporting a bouquet at the foot of the grave. All that was missing was an grave candle. | ||
| Croix St Pierre east | Chambered Cairn | France | Bretagne:Ille-et-Vilaine (35) | Visited | 19th Jul 2020 | 3 | 5 | 2 | Even though it was hard to get close to the dolmens and cist, the setting was magnificent. I wish we had had more time to enjoy this end of the site! | ||
| Château Bû | Chambered Cairn | France | Bretagne:Ille-et-Vilaine (35) | Visited | 19th Jul 2020 | 4 | 4 | 2 | Neatly trimmed and ringed in flowering bushes when we visited - an interesting site, to say the least. | ||
| Demoiselles Piquées | Stone Row / Alignment | France | Bretagne:Ille-et-Vilaine (35) | Visited | 19th Jul 2020 | 4 | 4 | 2 | A long walk, but all on a nice footpath. It is interesting how often the idea of the punished maidens / knights / etc turns up in regard to standing stones. | ||
| Alignement des Petites Roches Piquées | Stone Row / Alignment | France | Bretagne:Ille-et-Vilaine (35) | Visited | 19th Jul 2020 | 2 | 2 | 4 | It was a little hard to tell exactly where this alignment was, because the map on the information board is set 90 degrees off, and has no compass rose. When we did find it, all that can be seen today is the tips of the now mostly buried stones. | ||
| Alignements du Moulin W | Stone Row / Alignment | France | Bretagne:Ille-et-Vilaine (35) | Visited | 19th Jul 2020 | 3 | 4 | 4 | |||
| Alignements du Moulin S | Stone Row / Alignment | France | Bretagne:Ille-et-Vilaine (35) | Visited | 19th Jul 2020 | 4 | 4 | 4 | I have seen some spectacular pictures of these alignments, and it was great to see them in person. | ||
| Alignements du Moulin N | Stone Row / Alignment | France | Bretagne:Ille-et-Vilaine (35) | Visited | 19th Jul 2020 | 4 | 4 | 5 | I was a bit surprised that so many of the features in this relatively remote area were fenced off. It would have been nice to move around a bit more to get some better camera angles. | ||
| Roche-aux-Fées (Essé) | Passage Grave | France | Bretagne:Ille-et-Vilaine (35) | Visited | 20th Jul 2020 | 4 | 5 | 4 | We started our 5 day trip to Brittany with visit to the world's oldest publicly accessible cave paintings, visited 142 megalithic sites, and ended with the world's largest dolmen structure. What a way to finish! | ||
| Gornevez Dolmen | Burial Chamber or Dolmen | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 16th Jul 2020 | 4 | 4 | 5 | Located in a small city park. | 18 | |
| Grottes d'Arcy-sur-Cure | Cave or Rock Shelter | France | Bourgogne:Yonne (89) | Visited | 15th Jul 2020 | 2 | 4 | 5 | Fascinating to be able to see the oldest accessible cave paintings in Europe. Wonderfully helpful guide who knew our French was not up to snuff, so he would summarize often in English. The series of (inaccessible) caves along the Cure river are also interesting to visit with overviews of the archa... Read More |

| Menhir de Bignon 2 | Standing Stone (Menhir) | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 19th Jul 2020 | 4 | 3 | 5 | There was an old sign nailed to a nearby tree that shows that at one time this area was cleared ant labeled, but today the sign is weathered to bare wood, and the stone is surrounded by brush. | ||
| Menhir de Bel Air (Pipriac) | Standing Stone (Menhir) | France | Bretagne:Ille-et-Vilaine (35) | Visited | 19th Jul 2020 | 3 | 3 | 5 | One last site to finish the day. Bel Air certainly donated quite a few menhirs to the neighboring towns. | ||
| Dolmens de Kerhouarin 1+2 | Burial Chamber or Dolmen | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 19th Jul 2020 | 2 | 2 | 5 | When we first got out of the car, we ignored the compost pile along the hedge and looked for the stones. Only after a bit of a search did we realize that the pile of dead grass was the object or our quest. | ||
| Dolmen de Kerhouarin 3 | Burial Chamber or Dolmen | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Couldn't find | 19th Jul 2020 | It looked so obvious on t4t35, but it was nowhere to be seen! Next time... | |||||
| Menhirs de Belle Alouette | Standing Stones | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 19th Jul 2020 | 3 | 3 | 5 | We got to this site, and saw the menhirs and dolmen in the yard, and didn't realize that there were more in the cornfield until looking at the satellite map on the computer later that day. | ||
| Pierre Longue (Bain-de-Bretagne) | Standing Stone (Menhir) | France | Bretagne:Ille-et-Vilaine (35) | Visited | 20th Jul 2020 | 4 | 4 | 5 | |||
| Menhirs du Sel | Standing Stones | France | Bretagne:Ille-et-Vilaine (35) | Visited | 20th Jul 2020 | 4 | 4 | 4 | I noticed that these rather unassuming menhirs were on a website for Brittany tourism, so we decided to check them out as they were on our route. While they are nice, it is a bit of a mystery why the website would chose this site as one of about. five megalithic sites in all of Brittany to be featu... Read More |
||
| La Pierre des Fées | Standing Stone (Menhir) | France | Bretagne:Ille-et-Vilaine (35) | Visited | 20th Jul 2020 | 4 | 4 | 5 | Surrounded by tall corn this year, the menhir was still visible and imposing from quite a distance. | ||
| Sévéroué menhir | Standing Stone (Menhir) | France | Bretagne:Ille-et-Vilaine (35) | Visited | 19th Jul 2020 | 4 | 4 | 4 | Even after losing menhirs to St. Just and Pipriac, this village seems dotted with them. Unfortunately, due to the widening of the D177 we weren't able to get to some we had seen on the satellite pictures. | ||
| Sépulture de Bécihan | Passage Grave | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 19th Jul 2020 | 2 | 2 | 5 | Not much to see - we had to walk back and forth along the road for a while to try to determine which pile of rocks was the most likely to be the remains of a megalithic site. This one is located just inside a pasture. | ||
| Pierres Droites (Monteneuf) | Stone Row / Alignment | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 19th Jul 2020 | 4 | 5 | 4 | Wonderful site, far better ambience than the Carnac alignments. The interpretive signs and reconstructions based on archaeological findings are very interesting. | ||
| Menhir Le Bignon | Standing Stone (Menhir) | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 19th Jul 2020 | 4 | 4 | 4 | I wonder if the farmer appreciates what he gets to see as he works his field. | ||
| Menhir Fourchu | Standing Stone (Menhir) | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 19th Jul 2020 | 3 | 3 | 5 | Extremely overgrown, with the large stone covered in ivy, and the smaller ones lost in the ferns and brambles. (Not a good place to wear shorts I learned the hard way.) | ||
| Les Bordouès | Passage Grave | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 19th Jul 2020 | 3 | 3 | 4 | |||
| Le Passoir Menhir | Standing Stone (Menhir) | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 19th Jul 2020 | 3 | 2 | 5 | |||
| Lande de Rousse | Standing Stones | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 19th Jul 2020 | 2 | 3 | 3 | We found another row running roughly NE / SW at 47.88779, -2.20002, so it may be part of the same alignment as The Captain said. | ||
| La Roche Blanche | Round Cairn | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 19th Jul 2020 | 2 | 3 | 3 | Just what it says, a white rock. It is however nicely tended, and when we were there in July it was surrounded by blooming shrubs. | ||
| La Pièce Couverte | Passage Grave | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 19th Jul 2020 | 2 | 4 | 3 | It is possible to drive fairly close, depending how much dust / mud you are willing to get on your vehicle. | ||
| La Loge Morinais | Passage Grave | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 19th Jul 2020 | 3 | 4 | 3 | Well worth the walk. We met quite a few people on the path, although we were the only car in the parking lot. Industrious walkers, those French! | ||
| La Loge au Loup | Burial Chamber or Dolmen | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 19th Jul 2020 | 4 | 4 | 3 | Wonderful place to visit. Interesting to see a different style of structure. | ||
| Grand Breuil Menhir | Standing Stone (Menhir) | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 19th Jul 2020 | 4 | 2 | 5 | For being so large and so close to the road, this menhir is quite hard to find. What was once a nice grassy area is now fully overgrown with brushy trees that stand taller than the stone. If you know it is there and were to look, you can catch glimpses of it through the greenery. | ||
| Dolmen dit des Tablettes | Burial Chamber or Dolmen | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 19th Jul 2020 | 3 | 2 | 4 | At least they are trying to preserve it, rather than what was done in centuries past. | ||
| Grotte-aux-Fées (Tréal) | Burial Chamber or Dolmen | France | Bretagne:Ille-et-Vilaine (35) | Visited | 19th Jul 2020 | 4 | 4 | 3 | Quite nicely reconstructed. Impressive length and proportions. | ||
| Cimetière St. Just | Stone Row / Alignment | France | Bretagne:Ille-et-Vilaine (35) | Visited | 19th Jul 2020 | 3 | 3 | 5 | |||
| Bodel Menhir | Standing Stone (Menhir) | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 19th Jul 2020 | 4 | 4 | 3 | |||
| Babouin et Babouine | Standing Stones | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 19th Jul 2020 | 4 | 5 | 3 | The walk from the parking area to the menhirs was simply spectacular. A cool summer morning out of the hot sun, surrounded by ferns and mosses - It reminded me of my beloved Oregon. But Oregon does not have menhirs! | ||
| Allée Couverte du Haut Bodel | Passage Grave | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 19th Jul 2020 | 2 | 2 | 5 | While returning to the car after a fruitless search of the woods near the manor wall, we noticed the dolmen there in the yard a couple dozen meters from where we parked. | ||
| Allée couverte du Bignon | Passage Grave | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 19th Jul 2020 | 3 | 4 | 4 | |||
| Alignement dit le Rocher | Stone Row / Alignment | France | Bretagne:Ille-et-Vilaine (35) | Visited | 19th Jul 2020 | 3 | 3 | 5 | |||
| Téviec mesolithic cemetary | Barrow Cemetery | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Saw from a distance | 18th Jul 2020 | 1 | We got as close as we could without getting wet or arrested... | ||||
| St-Pierre-Quiberon Alignement | Stone Row / Alignment | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 18th Jul 2020 | 4 | 4 | 5 | |||
| Sainte-Barbe alignement | Multiple Stone Rows / Avenue | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 18th Jul 2020 | 4 | 4 | 4 | |||
| Roc'h en Aud Dolmen | Burial Chamber or Dolmen | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 18th Jul 2020 | 3 | 3 | 5 | |||
| Renaron Dolmen | Burial Chamber or Dolmen | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 18th Jul 2020 | 2 | 3 | 5 | Easy to overlook, I forgot that we had visited this one until I found the pictures. | ||
| Quiberon menhir | Standing Stone (Menhir) | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 18th Jul 2020 | 4 | 2 | 5 | More of a drive-by shooting with a camera. | ||
| Porz Guen Dolmens | Burial Chamber or Dolmen | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 18th Jul 2020 | 2 | 5 | 3 | At first I was wondering why so many people were on the path to visit the dolmen. As it turns out the beach was packed, but we were the only ones to hang around by the dolmens. | ||
| Pointe de la Guérite allée couverte | Passage Grave | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 18th Jul 2020 | 3 | 5 | 5 | Alas, cut by the road like an earthworm cut by a shovel. | ||
| Pointe de la Guérite menhir | Standing Stone (Menhir) | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 18th Jul 2020 | 3 | 5 | 5 | Although it is right next to the busy road, I give it a 5 for ambience because of the beautiful setting once your back is to the street. | ||
| Menhirs de Kerderff | Standing Stones | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 18th Jul 2020 | 5 | 4 | 3 | Along with the impressive menhirs, there is a beautiful memorial garden and tomb just to the north. | ||
| Menhir d'Er Men Guen | Standing Stone (Menhir) | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 18th Jul 2020 | 2 | 2 | 5 | Paid 30 cents to park in the lot and get my picture of the rock. The attendant seemed quite amused by the whole thing... | ||
| Menhir de Keridenvel 1 | Standing Stone (Menhir) | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 18th Jul 2020 | 4 | 4 | 5 | Rather funky shaped menhir at the end of someone's garden plot. | ||
| Menhir de Goulvars | Standing Stone (Menhir) | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 18th Jul 2020 | 5 | 4 | 4 | A surprisingly impressive menhir hidden behind a golf course. | ||
| Menhir de Beg er Vil | Standing Stone (Menhir) | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 18th Jul 2020 | 3 | 4 | 4 | Lying in a little bowl-shaped park. The surrounding streets are private, so we parked in Rue des Eiders and walked a couple of blocks to reach it. | ||
| Manémeur 2 & 3 menhirs | Standing Stones | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 18th Jul 2020 | 4 | 4 | 5 | |||
| Manémeur 1 menhir | Standing Stone (Menhir) | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 18th Jul 2020 | 4 | 3 | 5 | |||
| Mane Lud Dolmen | Chambered Cairn | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 18th Jul 2020 | 4 | 4 | 4 | At first glance fairly unassuming, but once you find the hidden entrance, wow! | ||
| La Table du Sacrifice | Burial Chamber or Dolmen | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 18th Jul 2020 | 4 | 5 | 4 | Spectacular array of menhirs leading to (or from) the alignments. One of the best group of megaliths in the Carnac area. | ||
| La Table des Marchands | Burial Chamber or Dolmen | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 18th Jul 2020 | 5 | 4 | 4 | Extensively rebuilt, so it is hard to know how much of it is actually original, but it gives one interpretation of what something like this may have looked like when built. | ||
| Kerhuen Dolmens | Burial Chamber or Dolmen | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 18th Jul 2020 | 4 | 4 | 5 | Scenic location reminiscent of coastal villages in the Pacific Northwest. | ||
| Kerguerhan Dolmen | Burial Chamber or Dolmen | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 18th Jul 2020 | 4 | 4 | 5 | |||
| Kergavat Dolmen | Burial Chamber or Dolmen | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 18th Jul 2020 | 3 | 3 | 5 | We knew it was near the road, but I was surprised at just how close. | ||
| Kerdruelland Alignements | Stone Row / Alignment | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 18th Jul 2020 | 2 | 2 | 3 | It is easy to reach the edge of the excavated area from a little parking lot, but access to the site itself is challenging due to the brush. | ||
| Mein Er Mere Menhir | Standing Stone (Menhir) | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 17th Jul 2020 | 3 | 4 | 3 | After finally finding the proper path down to the foreshore, were were warned of the quicksand by a local fellow who was raking cockles nearby. | ||
| Kerbougnec Cromlech | Stone Circle | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 18th Jul 2020 | 4 | 4 | 5 | Surprising large row of stones tucked away on a side street. | ||
| Kegil Berhed | Standing Stone (Menhir) | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 18th Jul 2020 | 3 | 4 | 5 | A nice setting in the middle of the estuary - definitely off the beaten track! | ||
| Grand Menhir Brisé | Standing Stone (Menhir) | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 18th Jul 2020 | 3 | 3 | 4 | By far the most interesting of the three sites in the Locmariaquer complex. It would have been nice to be able to stand near the broken part to compare just how huge it is. | ||
| Géants de Kerzerho | Stone Row / Alignment | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 18th Jul 2020 | 4 | 5 | 4 | A seemingly endless row of fittingly named giants leading to the spectacular Kerzerho alighment. | ||
| Er-Grah tumulus | Chambered Tomb | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 18th Jul 2020 | 3 | 3 | 4 | Seems to be a bit more of a reproduction than the actual original, although the video was helpful to show what it was like. | ||
| Dolmen du Moulin des Oies | Burial Chamber or Dolmen | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 18th Jul 2020 | 2 | 5 | 4 | Watching the evening shadows lengthen over the dolmen, a great way to end a full day. | ||

| Rondossec Dolmens | Burial Chamber or Dolmen | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 17th Jul 2020 | 4 | 3 | 5 | Somewhat unimpressive at first glance, but more is revealed as you move around it. Unfortunately this is another of the fenced off sites, it would have been great to explore it more closely. | ||
| Pierres Plates (Locmariaquer) | Burial Chamber or Dolmen | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 17th Jul 2020 | 4 | 5 | 4 | I am a bit jealous of some of the previous visitors' pictures, as the site is now fenced off, and no close examinations are allowed. | ||

| Mané-Kerioned Dolmen | Burial Chamber or Dolmen | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 17th Jul 2020 | 4 | 4 | 4 | When first viewed, this would seem to be a fairly ordinary site for the area, but the condition of the eastern grave makes this one of the highlights of the entire Carnac area. My daughter declared this to be her second favorite megalithic site of the hundreds we have visited, which is high praise! | ||
| Mané Roullarde | Burial Chamber or Dolmen | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 17th Jul 2020 | 3 | 3 | 4 | One could probably drive to the top of the hill and park by the monument, despite the street being signposted as a private road. Once there the fencing only allows you to see the monument from one end. | ||
| Mane-Rethuel Dolmen | Burial Chamber or Dolmen | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 17th Jul 2020 | 3 | 4 | 4 | Well signposted, but also well-fenced off. It is only possible to see the menhir from the west due to the fencing and hedges. | ||
| Mané Keriaval | Passage Grave | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 17th Jul 2020 | 4 | 5 | 4 | My personal favorite of the sites we visited in Morbihan. Impressive and tranquil. | ||
| Kerzerho Alignements | Multiple Stone Rows / Avenue | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 17th Jul 2020 | 4 | 4 | 5 | Possibly the best site we visited during our days in the Carnac area. To be able to walk among the stones is amazing, and the connection with the Giants is a nice bonus. The piles of stones pushed aside to make the road bear interesting witness to another side of this area as well. | ||

| Kermané Dolmen | Burial Chamber or Dolmen | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 17th Jul 2020 | 4 | 3 | 5 | Unfortunately in a private garden and somewhat overgrown, albeit with decorative plants and trees. | ||
| Kerlescan nord allée couverte | Passage Grave | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 17th Jul 2020 | 3 | 4 | 3 | Nice large allee couvert a world away from the tourist-trodden alignments nearby. | ||
| Kerlescan Alignements | Multiple Stone Rows / Avenue | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 17th Jul 2020 | 5 | 5 | 5 | Our first view of the Carnac alignments came upon us as somewhat of a surprise. We were coming in from the east, and had put the Kerlescan dolmen in the GPS, so were not thinking alignments at that moment. What a wonderful and breathtaking "surprise"! | ||
| Kercadoret Dolmen | Burial Chamber or Dolmen | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 17th Jul 2020 | 4 | 4 | 3 | The brush has grown up around the dolmen, fortunately mainly broom and no gorse, so it is still fairly easy to access. The surrounding greenery does add to the feeling of isolation, in spite of the highway close by. | ||
| Kercado Tumulus | Chambered Tomb | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 17th Jul 2020 | 5 | 5 | 4 | A simply stunning site. The curry house is a bit incongruous, though. | ||
| Dolmen du Manio | Burial Chamber or Dolmen | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 17th Jul 2020 | 2 | 2 | 5 | Right on the main road along the Carnac alignments, lies this little forgotten and mostly ruined dolmen. You have to make sure you don't get run over by the tourist train when you take pictures of it! | ||
| Dolmen de Kernevé | Burial Chamber or Dolmen | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 17th Jul 2020 | 3 | 4 | 5 | Cute is the word that comes to mind. The dolmen built into part of the garden wall and framed by hollyhocks. | ||
| Dolmen de Er-Roc'h-Feutet | Burial Chamber or Dolmen | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 17th Jul 2020 | 5 | 4 | 4 | Wonderful large and complete dolmen somewhat more off the beaten path. | ||
| La Pierre Carree | Standing Stone (Menhir) | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 17th Jul 2020 | 4 | 4 | 3 | So many people in the area it was hard to appreciate the alignments. | ||

| Botlann Dolmen | Burial Chamber or Dolmen | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 17th Jul 2020 | 3 | 3 | 5 | Surprising small, with the opening very similar in size and shape to a hockey goalmouth. | ||
| Cromlech du Menec-Est | Stone Circle | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 17th Jul 2020 | 3 | 3 | 2 | Difficult to see a cromlech among the stones of the alignment from ground level. It could simply be a case of missing stones making the appearance of a circle. | ||
| Alignement de Kerloquet | Multiple Stone Rows / Avenue | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 17th Jul 2020 | 4 | 4 | 5 | A bit further from the touristy masses, but albeit still fenced in. | ||
| Tumulus d'Etal-Berder | Burial Chamber or Dolmen | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 16th Jul 2020 | 3 | 2 | 4 | On private property, so no access to the interior. | ||

| Er Lannic | Stone Circle | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 16th Jul 2020 | 3 | 5 | 1 | In the summer of 2020 there are two options for tours to Gavinis, one that comes straight back to the pier, and one that takes a little detour past Er Lannic. Make sure if you are coming to the cairn that you also get the chance to see this site as well. | ||
| Gavrinis Cairn | Chambered Cairn | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 16th Jul 2020 | 4 | 5 | 4 | Unfortunately the only tour that fit our schedule was in French, which was a struggle, but the guide was passionate, knowledgeable, and very helpful. Kudos to Manon! Not to be missed if you are in the Carnac area. | ||
| Hémicycle de Berder | Stone Circle | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 16th Jul 2020 | 3 | 4 | 3 | A beautiful walk through the pine forest, and then a bit of a scramble down to the beach. The causeway to the island is only open at low tide, which is also when the site is most visible. | ||
| Dolmens de Mané-Ven-Guen | Burial Chamber or Dolmen | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 16th Jul 2020 | 2 | 3 | 4 | Not nearly as impressive as its neighbor to the north, but worth the visit. | ||
| Pointe de Toulvern Dolmen | Burial Chamber or Dolmen | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 16th Jul 2020 | 3 | 3 | 4 | Well signposted from a small parking area on the other side of the street. | ||
| Menhir de Mériadec | Standing Stone (Menhir) | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 16th Jul 2020 | 4 | 4 | 5 | Easily visible from the road, but it seems to be in a private yard. | ||
| Dolmen de Rangliac | Burial Chamber or Dolmen | France | Bretagne:Morbihan (56) | Visited | 16th Jul 2020 | 3 | 3 | 4 | Drive to near the end of the gravel road, then about a 100 meter walk east along a farm track. | ||
