A tour of the archaeology galleries at La Hougue Bie Museum with Olga Finch, Curator of Archaeology, 16th July 2019. On top of this colossal man-made circular mound, 54.9m in diameter and 12.2m high, is a pair of conjoined mediaeval chapels which , until 1924, were in turn crowned by a pseudo-Gothic house, La Tour d'Auvergne. It contains a single cruciform passage grave, the main chamber of which lies immediately below the summit.
