Built by Neolithic societies around 4,300 BCE,
this monument inscribed with historical monuments is one of the best preserved megalithic sites of the region.
Rarely open to visitors, come and discover it and walk in the footsteps of the first sedentary farmers.
Through a photographic retrospective you can dive into 10 years of archaeological research from the excavation to the restoration of the tumulus of Dissignac.
We look forward to seeing many of you for these 2022 European Heritage Days.
