Dolmen de la Ville Hamon, Neolithic dolmen in Erquy, France

The megalithic structure features a massive pink sandstone capstone measuring 2.85 meters in length and 2.75 meters in width, supported by original stone pillars.

This burial monument, constructed during the Neolithic period, received official recognition as a French historical monument on March 11, 1980.

The stones used in the construction originated from the local pink sandstone quarries of Erquy, representing the traditional building materials of the region.

Located in southeastern Erquy, the archaeological site offers free access through marked paths and stands near the Eurovéloroute EV4 cycling route.

The structure maintains two separate burial chambers, positioned north and south, with original orthostats still visible in their initial placement.
