Standing Stone (Menhir) in Oppland
At the front yard of the living house at the farm Hveen is a small standing stone. The stone is in the front yard and is surrounded by lawn grass and some garden trees.
The stone is around 1,35 metres in height, around 70cm wide at the base and around 20cm thick. The stone narrows towards the top that ends in a small point. The stone was for years taken down and used in a local barn, when the barn was demolished the stone was taken out again and placed back close to its original place.
