Allée Couverte des Mureaux
Allée Couverte des Mureaux submitted by binardino : located in a private garden in town next to the seine, this chamber tomb is incredible, it's my favorite! it's a real tumulus very well conserved. you have a small entry around 1 meter high and 2 meters large, passage grave is always buried under earth, i will say because i was in dark when i visited it around 7 meters long and 2 meters large.

you have a small entry around 1 meter high and 2 meters wide, and the passage grave is completely buried under earth. i will say (because i was in dark when i visited it) around 7 meters long and 2 meters wide.
