A 6,000-year old burial chamber

The barrow, or tumulus, is a megalithic tomb with two burial chambers, in the Dissignac area on the outskirts of Saint-Nazaire. It was built approximately 6,000 years ago and is considered one of the most remarkable prehistoric monuments of the whole region. An engraved stone slab with mysterious symbols is hidden within one of the burial chambers.
