Horomerice Menhir
Horomerice Menhir submitted by AlexHunger : This small 0.85 Meter tall Czech Menhir marks the beginning of the Megalithic Portal attempting to seriously research Eastern European Megaliths with GPS positions and everything. This red sandstone "Uminhiro," as the locals call it, is hidden under a large tree amongst tall grasses, but at least appears to be well protected with this Metal railing and has a proper signpost.

Standing Stone in the Czech Republic, Bohemia. This small 0.85 metre tall Czech Menhir marks the beginning of the Megalithic Portal's attempt to seriously research Eastern European Megaliths. This red sandstone "u menhiru," as the locals call it, is hidden under a large tree amongst long grass, which tends to hide it.

It at least appears to be well protected with this Metal railing and has a proper signpost.
