Menhir de Madunhac
Menhir de Madunhac submitted by alchemille : Menhir de Madunhac, Cantal, AUVERGNE (Vote or comment on this photo)
The menhir of Madunhac is a christianised standing stone, still planted on top of a tumulus, and with an oak tree growing behind it. This menhir has a thin black metalic cross stuck on top of it. The cross is typical feature of the Correze and Cantal menhirs.

It can be seen from the road D45 in the village of Madunhac, near Roannes Saint Mary, in the Department of Cantal, Auvergne.

    Thanks for submitting the site page, but the coordinates seem incorrect. If you enter 44.529300N 2.223170E into google maps search for example you end up at another area.
