La Pierre du Domaine, Neolithic menhir in Plerguer, France.

The Pierre du Domaine stands 4.12 meters tall as a quadrangular obelisk-shaped granite monolith with fine grains and distinct east-west facing sides.

The French Ministry of Culture designated this prehistoric monument as a protected historical site in 1889, marking its importance in megalithic heritage.

Local traditions tell of two armies meeting at this location, where the stone emerged between two fighters who discovered they were brothers.

The archaeological site is located at coordinates 48.5091681, -1.8138783 and requires permission from private landowners for access to the monument.

A second menhir existed 100 meters from the Pierre du Domaine until 1880, when it was knocked down and subsequently destroyed.
