Pseude-Cromlech from St Marc

The so-called Cromlech of Saint-Marc-sur-Mer is located in the municipality of Saint-Nazaire in the Loire-Atlantique department in France . It looks like a small stone circle about five meters in diameter. However, it is probably the remains of a burial mound border . Some large stones lie in the middle together with a stone that appears to have been a capstone.

Other remains of hilltops are also sometimes referred to as cromlech in France .
