La Noce de Pierres

La Noce de Pierres

La Noce de Pierres Breton: An Eured Ven (The Wedding Party) is an alignment of some 77 standing stones at the foot of Menez Michael (Saint-Michel-de-Brasparts) in the hills of Britanny. Aetiological folk tales say that the stones were originally the members of a drunken wedding party, petrified for their bad treatment of a stranger.[1]
