The stone that went travelling

The stone that went travelling

It was made 3,000 years ago, yet it ended up 1,000 miles from home. Its journey hasn't stopped. Where will it end up next?

The dolmen of Saint-Antonin is an ancient megalithic tomb situated on the commune of Salles-la-Source in the Aveyron department, France. Despite its current location in France, the dolmen is not native to this region; it is believed to have been moved from its original location in Ireland thousands of years ago. This dolmen, classified as a monument historique in 1989, is one of the last Neolithic dolmens remaining in France. The stone still attracts visitors with its mystery and secrets.
