Log Text: By far the most interesting of the three sites in the Locmariaquer complex. It would have been nice to be able to stand near the broken part to compare just how huge it is.

Log Text: When first viewed, this would seem to be a fairly ordinary site for the area, but the condition of the eastern grave makes this one of the highlights of the entire Carnac area. My daughter declared this to be her second favorite megalithic site of the hundreds we have visited, which is high praise!
