The Cromlech of the Almendres megalithic complex, or Almendres Cromlech, is a group of structured menhirs near Evora


The Cromlech of the Almendres megalithic complex, or Almendres Cromlech, is the largest existing group of structured menhirs in the Iberian Peninsula, and one of the largest in Europe. This archaeological site consists of several megalithic structures: cromlechs, and menhir stones, the first belonging to the so-called "megalithic universe of Évora", with clear parallels to other cromlechs, such as in Portela Mogos in the Montemor-o-Novo.
