Carnac

Carnac is a town in Brittany, France, famous for its prehistoric megalithic sites—thousands of standing stones arranged in long rows across the landscape.

The Carnac stones date to the Neolithic period and rival Stonehenge in archaeological significance: We visited the alignments at Carnac.

Separately, Carnac the Magnificent was a comedic character played by Johnny Carson on *The Tonight Show*, a turbaned mystic who divined answers to questions sealed in envelopes.
