Dolmen de la Palein is a burial chamber on the hills to the south of the village of St-Cernin-de-Larche, Departement of Corrèze.

Unfortunately some idiots used the dolmen for graffiti.
This dolmen is close to the Buffovent dolmen.

Base Mérimée (Historic Monument)

Note: the megalith is called "menhir" by mistake, everyone can see it's a dolmen

La Palein Dolmen submitted by Flickr : Tumulus et Dolmen_Palein, Corrèze Plusieurs restes de la culture celte cohabitent sur ce plateau, des dolmens et tumulus d'âge très variable. Sans doute ont-ils été préservés grâce à la pauvreté du sol, et donc, l'absence d'agriculture. A l'exception là encore des truffières qui envahissent certains secteurs...
