Kerivoret Dolmen, Neolithic dolmen in Porspoder, France.
The Kerivoret Dolmen is a Neolithic burial chamber made from five upright stones with a large flat roof stone. The structure combines different types of granite to create a stable and lasting form.
The structure was built during the Neolithic period and received official protection status in 1923. This recognition helped ensure the site's survival for future generations.
The site shows how Neolithic people fitted granite blocks together using different stone types to create something that would last for thousands of years. You can see at the joints and arrangement how carefully the construction was planned.
The site is outdoors and can be reached on foot from a nearby parking area. The setting is open, so you can walk around and view the stones from different angles.
Nearby stands a single stone post that connects with the dolmen as part of a larger arrangement. This menhir is positioned so that it blocks the rising sun during the equinoxes.
