Dolmens de Mané-Kervilor, Neolithic burial site in La Trinité-sur-Mer, France.

The site features three passage graves situated on a rocky ridge within a wooded area, each containing stone corridors leading to burial chambers.

These megalithic structures, dating from 4000 to 2500 BC, were first documented by the Polymathic Society in 1867 and classified as historical monuments in 1927.

The three dolmens represent different phases of Neolithic funeral practices, providing insights into the methods and customs of ancient communities.

Visitors can access the archaeological site through marked hiking trails that connect to La Trinité-sur-Mer, with informational panels explaining the structures.

The third dolmen remained hidden until its discovery during excavations by Zacharie Le Rouzic in 1898, revealing additional chambers within the oval tumulus.
