Le menhir de la Thiemblais just outside the town of St-Samson-sur-Rance in Ille-et-Villaine in Brittany. It has relief carvings all over it, although they’re quite difficult to see except in certain lights. In my fourth picture, you can just make out a carving of a looped cross. It’s a very impressive stone weighing around 150 tonnes and at around 8 metres in length—despite the 45 degree angle!

Avant hier nous avons été faire le tour de l'étang du Korong, en Glomel, et nous nous sommes arrêtés voir le menhir de Glomel.
Un beau bébé de 8,60 mètres. Dommage qu'il soit derrière une barrière, empêchant d'en apprécier la forme globale.

#StandingStoneSunday Bennett's Cross on the NE of Dartmoor. It may have been a menhir originally, which was later repurposed as a cross.

I am furious since I read about
this in the French Press - centralised France always talking about their sacred "patrimoine" and Carnac living from tourists interested in megalithic culture but somehow the unsurveyed mayor's office was more interested in destroying their past:

C'est insupportable, sur tous les niveaux le #profit, le profit, le profit - même dans une zone où on vit du tourisme (mégalithique). J'espère que le magasin va être boycotté!

What timing for #StandingStoneSunday! Spotted this gem on a tour and winetasting visit to a #winery in #Portugal yesterday.
This #menhir was discovered in the vineyard of Adega José de Sousa in #Alentejo. It is believed to be 6-8 thousand years old. You can still see markings on the side that was buried in the dirt and protected from erosion. The circles of different sizes and thought to be a celestial map or a census of local populations at the time.
