Alignements de Kerbourgnec, Neolithic stone row in Saint-Pierre-Quiberon, France.

The archaeological complex contains five parallel rows of standing stones extending over 60 meters with twenty-three visible menhirs in the current configuration.

During the late nineteenth century, French authorities acquired the site and reconstructed numerous fallen stones, following methods similar to those used at Carnac.

The arrangement and positioning of the stones indicate advanced engineering knowledge and ceremonial practices of Neolithic communities in Brittany.

Visitors can explore the stone alignments through a designated footpath that connects the main site to a nearby menhir enclosure.

Marine archaeological surveys revealed 150 additional monoliths submerged underwater, extending the site 600 meters into the sea.
