La Coste statue menhir submitted by johnstone : Overview of the site, Sep.21, 2021 (Vote or comment on this photo)
A replica statue menhir standing on a hill near the road D25 from Broquiès to Villefranche-de-Panat (not in the hamlet of La Coste). There is a car parking space, toilet and picnic tables attached. The signposts on the way indicate "Broquiès statue menhir", but the last one only says "La Coste statue menhir". The original statue menhir is preserved in Musée Fenaille, Rodez.
