Alignments of Kerlescan

The Alignments of Kerlescan are one of the three main megalithic groups in Carnac, featuring 555 standing stones arranged in 13 rows. Unlike Ménec, these alignments end in a semicircular megalithic enclosure, which may have had a ceremonial function. The stones here are generally smaller than those at Ménec, but the site is more intimate and less crowded, offering a peaceful experience. The rows are well-defined, and you can see the careful placement of stones that align with the landscape. A visit to Kerlescan complements the larger Ménec site, providing a different perspective on Neolithic engineering.
