Créac'h-Gallic
Créac'h-Gallic (also called Dolmen de Tréguelc'hier ) is an Allée couverte in Goulven in the Finistère department in Brittany in France .
The central chamber measures approximately 4.0 × 2.0 meters and is approximately 2.0 meters high. The only capstone rests on three supporting stones and looks like a tripod dolmen . Remnants of the corridor made of large slabs are tilted against each other. In France, dolmen is the generic term for Neolithic megalithic structures of all kinds (see: French nomenclature ).
Around the chamber stand or lie large slabs of the former kerbstone wall, which bordered the narrowly adapted hill that can be seen in remnants.
The fenced-in remains of the rather large megalithic complex are statically unstable. Signs warn against standing near the stones or climbing on the system.
