Megaliths of Wéris, Archaeological site with dolmens and menhirs in Durbuy, Belgium

The Megaliths of Wéris contain two main dolmens and multiple standing stones made from local pudding stone, spread across an 8-kilometer alignment.

The megalithic structures were constructed around 2500 BC during the Neolithic period, with the Northern Dolmen first rediscovered during Roman road construction.

The monuments indicate advanced engineering capabilities of prehistoric communities, with both dolmens featuring specific spirit holes for ceremonial purposes.

La Maison des Mégalithes museum charges 3 euros entrance fee and provides detailed information about the stone structures through exhibits and guided tours.

Local farmers and church authorities buried many of these stones over centuries, considering them devil's stones, leading to ongoing archaeological discoveries in recent years.
