The Carnac stones (Alignements de Carnac) are an exceptionally dense collection of megalithic sites around the village of Carnac in Brittany. The stone formations are either alignments, dolmens, tumuli or single menhirs. More than 3,000 prehistoric standing stones are in the area, erected by the Pre-Celtic people and it’s the largest collection in the world.
