Standing Stones in Galicia
From the front and back of the chapel towering twelve menhirs (six per side) protruding from the ground between 0.50 and 0.75 meters; by side there are remnants of the stones since the place was completely changed by the construction of a wall and a school. Nor can we determine whether they occupy the original place or were relocated, six stones, rather than take a circle, seem to form an alignment.
