Vagouar-Huen dolmen
The small, tilted dolmen of Vagouar-Huen (also called Magouer-Hen, Vieux Mur, Locmaria or Magoer Huen) is located near Locmaria in the southeast of the Île de Groix in the Morbihan department in Brittany in France . In France, dolmen is the generic term for Neolithic megalithic structures of all kinds (see: French nomenclature ).
The chamber's orthostats are low, the chamber is quite large. In addition to some supporting stones, two ceiling panels have also been preserved. A white pillar was probably built as a navigation mark on the dolmen.
The megalithic complex has been classified as a monument historique since 1966 .
