Gabaudet dolmen
The Dolmen of Gabaudet 1 + 2 (also called Dolmen de la Devèze) are located between Touleyrou and Gabaudet near Issendolus (also Aissendolús) in the Fijac district in the Lot department in southern France . In France, dolmen is the generic term for megalithic structures of all kinds (see: French nomenclature ).
The two simple dolmens ( French dolmen simple ) of Gabaudet surrounded by oaks are about 300 m apart. The larger dolmen, Issendolus 2, begins to lean to one side.
It is structurally very similar to some other dolmens in the Lot department , in particular the Table de Roux by Assier .
Nearby are the Dolmen de la Pierre Martine and the Dolmen de la Pierre Levée (Issendolus) .
