U Frate è a Sora, Archaeological site near Propriano, France

Two ancient menhirs stand along the roadside in the Rizzanese plain between Propriano and Sartène in southern Corsica.

The archaeological site received official recognition as a historical monument in 1889, following its first documentation by Prosper Mérimée in 1840.

The standing stones, measuring three meters in height, represent a local story about a monk and nun transformed into stone according to regional folklore.

The location provides direct access from the main road connecting Propriano to Sartène, with clear visibility from the roadside for visitors.

Three stone formations mark the site: two inclined menhirs and a third fallen stone that might be a fragment of the original structures.

Location: Sartène

Address: Ufrate e A Sora 20100
