The covered walkway of the Petit Vieux Sou in Brecé, classified as a Historic Monument, is one of the most beautiful megalithic monuments in the department. Known as the "side entrance" because of the position of its opening, it dates back approximately 2400 years BC. Its framework is made up of 25 pillars erected vertically and covered by a dozen slabs, the whole being surrounded by a stone cairn. This monument was excavated and restored from 1978 to 1982 by archaeologist Roger Bouillon. The Jublains Excavation Depot preserves some of the objects discovered: they are not visible for the moment.
