MENJEZ HERITAGE HOUSE Archaeological excavations of the Jesuit Father M. Tallon s.j. in the 1960s revealed a large number of dolmens in Menjez (more than 100). The studies of T. Steimer in 1995 dated and gave the keys to understanding these prehistoric monuments. With funds from the British Council, the municipality of Menjez in the Akkar offers a hiking circuit to discover 11 dolmens. It is possible to visit the monuments through the trails of a preserved environment, either alone or with aguide.

Panels, movies, models and engraved rocks explain how, why and when men built dolmens for their dead.
