Dolmen de la Gaillarde-sur-Mer, Neolithic dolmen in Roquebrune-sur-Argens, France

The stone chamber of the Gaillarde dolmen measures 2.50 meters in length and 2 meters in width, with a 1.50-meter corridor opening to the west.

The dolmen received official historical monument status in 1910, marking a significant step in preserving this prehistoric burial structure for future generations.

Archaeological excavations in 1908 revealed human remains and flint arrowheads within the chamber, indicating the burial practices of ancient communities in this region.

Located at 423 Avenue des Tumulus in Roquebrune-sur-Argens, the dolmen offers free access throughout the year for visitors interested in prehistoric architecture.

This megalithic structure remains the sole survivor of three original dolmens in the area, as two others disappeared during housing development in the 1960s.
