Carnac stones

The Carnac stones are a dense concentration of thousands of Neolithic megaliths on the south coast of Brittany, France, including long alignments of standing stones, dolmens, tumuli and stone circles. The monuments were erected in the fourth to fifth millennia BC and are distributed across a series of fields and small woodlands near the modern town of Carnac.

As it stood in 3300 BC

What Carnac stones looked like in its prime.

Wide fields and low grassy slopes studded with hundreds of upright weathered granite menhirs forming long, often fan-shaped rows; occasional stone circles and clusters; low earthen tumuli rising as grassy mounds with blocked passages; scattered capped dolmen chambers of large upright slabs and horizontal capstones; rough pale-grey stone surfaces, lichen and moss in sheltered spots; hedgerows, copses and a few traditional stone cottages at the field edges.
