Menhir des Ouches
Menhir des Ouches submitted by dt44 : Menhir des Ouches (Vote or comment on this photo)
The Menhir des Ouches is one of two standing stones (Ouches et Bois) which are situated in the community of Le Bernard near the Frébouchère burial chamber (which is 250 metres to the south).

B Poissonnier in "La Vendée préhistorique" thinks that these two standing stones are in relation with Dolmen Frébouchère.
