Menhir de Pierrefitte, Prehistoric menhir in Étampes, France
The Pierrefitte menhir stands 4.20 meters high above the Louette Valley, with a width of 2.60 meters at its base.
This megalithic monument dates back to the Neolithic period and received historical monument status in January 1964.
The sandstone monolith stands as evidence of ritual practices from ancient communities that inhabited the Île-de-France region.
The site is located 2.5 kilometers from central Étampes, between the road to Saint-Hilaire and the Étampes-Auneau railway line.
The north-northeast face of the stone features natural holes while the south-southeast surface maintains a smooth texture.
