Image title
Carnac menhir alignments. Drawing by Victor Hugo grave by Meaulle. Extract from the text of Hugo (En voyage en Bretagne, 11 August 1834): “” My dear friend, you cannot figure yourself as Celtic monuments are strange and sinister. In Karnac, I had almost a moment of despair. These prodigious stones were almost all thrown down by the foolish peasants who make them walls and huts. All the dolmens, an exception with a cross, are on the ground. Only the Peulvens (standing stones) remain... The Karnac Peulvens have an immense effect. They are countless and sheltered in long avenues. The entire monument, with its erased cromlechs and its destroyed dolmens, covered a plain of more than two leagues. Now we see nothing but ruin. It was a unique thing that is no longer. Stupid country! stupid people! stupid government!”
