La Pierre du Domaine

The menhir La Pierre du Domaine stands in a field between the hamlets of Le Vallet la Soulière and Saint Pétreux, southeast of Plerguer in the north of the Ille-et-Vilaine department in Brittany in France .

It is a square, fine-grained granite, defaced with color, with a height of 4.12 m. The large areas face east and west and are 1.2 m and 1.0 m wide, respectively.

There was a second menhir about 100 m away and destroyed in 1880.

The menhir was listed as a historical monument in 1889.
