It is the largest standing stone in Brittany and is over 9 meters high. LocationThe Menhir du Champ-Dolent is 2 kilometres south of Dol-de-Bretagne in the department of Ille-et-Vilaine.[1][2] It is in a small picnic area fenced off among the fields near the D795 road.[3][4] DescriptionThe menhir is the tallest of Brittany's standing stones.[1] Its height above ground is between 9.3 and 9.5 metres.[5] It is made of pinkish granite,[4] and has an estimated weight of around 100 tonnes.[5] It is oval in shape with a smooth surface.[2] A cross was once placed on top to Christianize it.[6] It has been registered as a monument historique by the French Ministry of Culture since 1889.[7] In folkloreAccording to legend, the menhir fell from the skies to separate two feuding brothers who were on the point of killing each other.[3][6] This legend is said to account for the name "Champ Dolent" which means "Field of Sorrow".[1] Another legend states that the menhir is slowly sinking into the ground, and the world will end when it disappears altogether.[3] According to tradition, in the year 560 Chlothar I, King of the Franks, is said to have met his rebel son, Chram, here.[8] See also
