You can see this standing stone in the very middle of a field
to the north of Mur de Bretagne (Wall of Brittany), in the village of St
Gilles vieux marché.
To the north-east of Mur de Bretagne there is Notre Dame de
Lorette and the fountain that has healing powers.
Pilgrims and tourists go to this fountain to be healed and
they throw a coin into the water.
The fountain is embellished with a low-relief sun (the relic
from a sun-worship ?) and it is characteristic of the still living water-worship
in Brittany.
You can see alignments of standing stones at the top of the
hill very near the chapel.
That proves that the Christian places of worship were often
erected on sacred pagan places.
