The Kerlescan standing stones at Carnac

The site of Kerlescan is the smallest and the most preserving of Carnac alignments. This field of menhirs is composed of 13 queues where 555 stones stand. A surrounding wall of 39 menhirs is located in the west end of the site. It is closed in the north by a long hillock (=mont of stones on a burial), marked by a high menhir of 3,7 metres high.

Le Petit Menec located in the town of “Trinité sur Mer” extends with his alignment the site of Kerlescan. It is constituted of a hundred of menhirs disposed on 8 queues. It is possible that it formed a group with Kerlescan.
