Pierre Levée (Salles-de-Castillon) submitted by thecaptain on 4th Jul 2005. La Pierre Levée, Salles-de-Castillon, Gironde.
This was one of the more interesting sites I found in my last session in France. It comes with its own wine, made by the chap in the picture, in his "chateau" at which this menhir is at the entrance.

Dolmen de Puy Landry
Date Added: 28th Jun 2013
Site Type: Burial Chamber or Dolmen
Country: France (Aquitaine:Gironde (33))
Visited: Would like to visit
Dolmen de Puy Landry submitted by thecaptain on 9th Jan 2006. In fine wine country near Salles-de-Castillon, atop a ridge in woodland can be seen a standing stone.
Closer inspection reveals a fallen companion and that the stones are on top of a mound running in an easterly direction with several other stones lying about in the vicinity. This leads me to suspect that this is in fact the remains of a dolmen or allée couverte.

I had no idea what this is meant to be and indeed no idea whether this is the proper megalithic remains! Later I find out that this is indeed the remains of a megalithic burial chamber (dolmen a bit incorrect perhaps). And that there is also a menhir nearby.
