Dolmen of Kervignon
The Dolmen of Kervignon (also called Kervignon Dolmen) south of the local sports center of Plobannalec in Quimper , in Finistère department in Bretagne in France . In France, dolmen is the generic term for Neolithic megalithic structures of all kinds (see: French nomenclature ).
The roughly square capstone, heavily weathered on the upper side, rests on one side diagonally on two supporting stones and is supported on the other on a small residual stone. It is the remains of a dolmen, much of which has been destroyed. The remaining part was perhaps a corridor, as its side stones are small.
The Kervignon dolmen is not far from the Kervadol dolmen .
