Menez Korriged, Gallery grave in Plouhinec, France.

Menez Korriged is a gallery grave in Plouhinec with stone chambers and passages from prehistoric times, located near the Bay of Audierne. The structure features stone walls that extend several meters into the ground.

The gallery grave was built in the Late Neolithic period and continued to be used for burials through the Gallo-Roman era. This long period of use shows it remained important to communities across many generations.

The Breton name Menez Korriged means "Hill of the korrigans", the small sprites of local folklore, and the monument is also called the allée couverte de Porz Poul'han. Excavations found 3,908 flints, 786 pottery sherds and ten steatite beads, plus a blue glass-paste bead in the centre of the chamber showing the tomb was reused in the Bronze Age.

A blue glass-paste bead found at the centre of the chamber shows the tomb was reused during the Bronze Age. Later, in the Gallo-Roman period, cremation urns dated to the 2nd and 3rd centuries were buried in the southern part of the mound.
