And in english :

This burial chamber is in fact situated in the community of Niort-le-Sault, departement of Aude (11), really neau to the limit with the departement of Ariege (09). And the nearest village is still Mijanès (departement of Ariège).
See your map...
And the new region's name is now Occitanie..

Bonjour,

petite correction à suggérer :

ce dolmen est donné par le site T4T35 pour être situé à 1932 m d'altitude sur la commune de Niort-de-Sault et serait donc le plus au sud du département de l'Aude (11). Ce que votre carte semble confirmer !!!

Et effectivement, le village le plus proche est Mijanès, qui est dans le Donnezan, en Ariège.

Et de toutes façons, il se trouve maintenant dans la nouvelle Région Occitanie.

Cordialement,
