Stone of Saint Vio, Stone stele near Saint-Vio Chapel in Tréguennec, France.
The Stone of Saint Vio stands one meter tall with a similar diameter, featuring cup marks and resting on a flat base near the dunes.
The Iron Age stone monument, dating from 750 to 450 BCE, was split and later reconnected with lime mortar during its 1988 restoration.
Local residents of Tréguennec maintain traditions involving the stone, including a celebration every fourth Sunday of June connecting it to a fountain.
The stone monument is located fifty meters from Saint-Vio Chapel and ten meters from the road leading to central Tréguennec.
Before World War I, the stone served in pagan rituals where locals believed they could influence weather patterns by turning it.
