Natural Stone in Languedoc:Aude (11)

View images of a megalithic 'wall' feature near Rennes-le-Château in France. The composition of this rock 'wall' is very unusual and it's location implies there is much more beneath the surrounding surface with only about 5% of the structure completely exposed. A Celtic map made by the secretive Abbe Boudet, implies this area is indeed a mysterious, megalithic ruin and the whole area contains unusual rock formations. The exterior of the rock appears very hard while the interior is a pinkish sandstone.
