The dolmen in Bois l'Eveque (also called by Pierre-la-Treich - but also bears the name of a grotto near Toul ) is one of two dolmens in Sexey-aux-Forges (the other is in Bois l'Abbé ) in the department Meurthe-et-Moselle (54). It is one of seven, at least partially preserved, megalithic sites in the Lorraine region in France . In France, dolmen is the generic term for megalithic structures of all types.

The remaining Neolithic monuments are La Garenne in Liverdun, the Dolmen de La Devise in Séraumont, the Dolmen du Ruissard in Montplonne, the Nécropole tumulaire du Bois Saint-Charles in Beaufremon and the stone box Champ Libert in Villouxel.

From the dolmen in Bois l'Eveque only three large and two broken bearing stones have survived.
