Dolmen Er-Roc'h-Feutet

The Dolmen Er-Roc'h-Feutet is located in Kerguéarec, north of Carnac , about 250 m east of the D 186 road in the Morbihan department in Brittany in France . In France, dolmen is the generic term for megalithic structures of all kinds (see: French nomenclature ).

The dolmen has a chamber made of eight granite bearing stones , covered with two ceiling panels. The portal made of three stones is not a structural shape like the “Dolmen angevin” has, but the remainder of a long, lower corridor. There are also remains of the cairn around the dolmen.

The dolmen has been classified as a monument historique since 1889 .

Nearby is the Dolmen de La Madeleine (Carnac).
