The Devil's Stone is the largest remaining stone of a destroyed dolmen. It is laying on a piece of land between agricultural fields, just across the road from an old farm, named Dyvelsgård. It is surrounded with a lot of local lore.

...and described in an essay by Danish archeologist Flemming Kaul.
