oldman visited on 19th Sep 2019 - their rating: Cond: 4 Amb: 4 Access: 4 An interesting tumulus. It is well covered by undergrowth and ivy so it is difficult to see its construction but there are a lot of loose stones around the edges that you can see so it may be that it is stone rather than an earth mound.

This tumulus is a little mound at 50 metres of the crossroad between the D46 and the D434 on the top of the hill, near the townhall on the community of Cressac Saint-Genis.

The dimensions are about 6 m on diametre and 2,5 m high; this mound is in a cropfield and covered by trees and ivy with no visible trace of dig.

On the nearest village "Le Temple" there is a templar church with listed fresco who tell the story of Crusaders in Jérusalem .
