Menhir Les Vingt Acres

The Menhir Les Vingt Acres ( German  "The Twenty Acres " ) - also called Menhir de Soulangy - is located southwest of Soulangy , near Falaise in the Calvados department in Normandy in France .

The menhir discovered in 1995 during the route investigation during the construction of the N 158 near Soulangy was set up on the western side of the Soulangy rest area.

The cuboid stone is about 2.5 meters high. Its former pit was clearly visible. It is a shiny, sandy-quartz-like white-yellow to light-brown stone with a rough surface that has not yet been placed under protection.
