Tumiac tumulus
Date Added: 5th Nov 2011
Site Type: Chambered Tomb
Country: France (Bretagne:Morbihan (56))
Visited: Yes. My rating: Condition 5 Ambience 4 Access 4
Tumiac tumulus submitted by AlexHunger on 2nd Nov 2004. Tumulus de Tumiac, otherwise known as Butte De Cesar is the first noticeable site on the southerly Presqu’ile de Rhuys, on the way to Arzon. No serious attempt has been to date this large pile of rocks, but it is largely in the state it was in 2050 years ago, when it was first mentioned. Gaius Julius Ceasar allegedly used it as a command post, from which to survey troop movements and fleets while concluding the Gallic wars but it predates his appearance by over 2,000 years.

Log Text: After viewing numerous pictures of this on the web, I felt a strong urge to reach this site. A calling if you like.
Like with a few powerful sites I've visited, my journey is usually a tough one. Be it getting lost and stressed or battling really bad weather, this site proved no exception to those circumstances.
Upon arrival I was truly humbled by it's enormity, but the pains of my journey were soon forgotten when I thought of the labour that went into building this chamber.
Truly one of the most amazing ancient structures I've seen.
Champ Dolent Menhir
Date Added: 5th Oct 2011
Site Type: Standing Stone (Menhir)
Country: France (Bretagne:Ille-et-Vilaine (35))
Visited: Yes on 19th Jul 2011
Champ Dolent menhir submitted by Jimwithnoname on 19th Jul 2011. A now much more open site. The surrounding bushes have been cut back. I guess farmers are having to utilise all their available crop space nowadays.
We sheltered perfectly out of the rain against this 'warm' stone in a downpour.

Reun menhir submitted by paulcall on 22nd May 2009. Martin L's previous photo taken in 1989 shows the menhir towering over the nearby conifer. 20 years later I'm afraid the tree is so large that it is in danger of covering the stone. Hopefully the roots will not de-stabilise it.

Menhir du Roz Perez submitted by Jimwithnoname on 13th Jul 2011. I've been on the bridge that spans two worlds. I came across this menhir whilst looking for another stone of 8mtrs, which I eventually discovered in a family front garden behind some trees.
This stone appeared to be original as the workmen had positioned huge 4' square boulders around it to protect it.
The road was blocked, I could go no further. The image was quite striking and one not be missed. A number plate type sign had been drilled to the menhir saying 'RESPECT' but was at the wron...
