Dolmen La Pierre Levée

Highlight • Other

La Pierre Levée von Soubise (also called Pierre du Diable) is a dolmen on Rue du Dolmen near the D38 road between Brem-sur-Mer and Bretignolles-sur-Mer in the Vendée department in France. Until 2005 it lay on a large open grassland, then it was moved to the vicinity of the roundabout on the D38.

The simple dolmen – dolmen is the generic term in France for megalithic structures of all kinds (see: French nomenclature) – with its 2.5 by 2.0 meter, 45 cm thick quartzite capstone resting on three supporting stones, lies on private land. Further stones lay scattered on the remains of the burial mound. The shape, unusual for France, with the capstone resting obliquely, is reminiscent of the Portal Tombs in the British Isles.

In 1901, the remains of three corpses were found.

The dolmen, around which several legends are told, is one of several erratic boulders, menhirs or stone tables named Pierre du Diable (e.g. in Allinges, Arq, Artas, Beuvry, Jambes, Haillot, Lécluse – also in plural as „Les Pierres“) in Belgium, France and Switzerland. Likewise, there are a number of dolmens in France called La Pierre Levée (see Dolmen de la Pierre Levée).

Nice to go straight to the other side. On the other hand, many, many people during the tourist season.

Les Sables-d'Olonne seafront

Highlight • Other

Several miles of sandy beach in a warm color, inviting for swimming, mainly at high tide when the water is high above the deeper pebbles and rocks offshore. It is accompanied by a popular promenade, also used by the Vélodyssée (EuroVélo1) bike trail, that separates it from the coastal road.
