MENHIR DE LA RIVERAIE

Block of sandstone 3 m high, 2.50 m wide at the base and approximately 0.80 m thick. The profile of this sandstone block is made up of particular movements and a 12cm circular hollow can be seen on one of its faces. The menhir was listed as a historic monument in 1984. It should be noted that another stone can be seen nearby, which was apparently erected at the same time. However, Pitre de Lisle’s inventory mentions a second menhir that is still visible and a third that has been knocked down and broken up. The three of them must have formed an alignment.
