The Grandson Menhir

This menhir, 4 m in height, is to be found a few hundred metres away from the village of Grandson, on the roadside in the direction of Fiez. It can be reached by a rural path that leads to it from Grandson.

The Menhirs at Corcelles-près-Concise

A group of 4 menhirs, of which 3 are authentic and one a reproduction, have been erected at Corcelles-Concise. The four menhirs form a quadrilateral rectangle.

The alignment of this quadrilateral was probably determined in accordance with astronomic phenomena such as the rising and setting of the sun or the moon at the time of the solstices or equinoxes.

The site dates from the same period as the important archeological site Clendy, and was restored 1843. The fourth stone is a reproduction, as can be seen by the inscription : "Erected in 1843 by Monsieur De Meuron at the exact spot where a menhir formerly stood".

Bonvillars

A tall menhir measuring 3 ½ metres stands proudly among the vineyards at the entrance to Bonvillars, between the former residence of the Bailiffs of Bern, the « Cours de Bonvillars », and the wine-growers’ cellar with the Bonvillars protected label.
