The Morbihan area of NW France is famous for the megalithic stone rows at Carnac, the great menhir and tumuli at Locmariaquer and the tumulus de Gavrinis.

However there are many more extravagant megalithic sites in the area - indeed the whole region must once have been an immense ceremonial and cultural centre. For here are to be found megalithic complexes without equal: tumuli, dolmens and covered alleys, as well as menhirs, stone rows, circles, quadrangles and ovals.

The stone rows stretch 5 kilometers E-W from Erdeven to Carnac and on to La Trinité, in four sections - with a "cromlech" (stone circle or quadrangle) at the eastern end of each section, while the great tumulus of St Michel at Carnac, believed to have been constructed around 6000 BC, is 125m long, 50m wide and 10m high and contains several dolmens.
