Standing Stone (Menhir) in Bohemia
Nice piece of stone from agglomerate standing in the beautiful scenic spot. The stone is about 80 cm tall and its origin is not clear. It can by an ancient menhir but it could be a medieval milestone as well.
Local people seem to like it anyway. The site is well signposted and there is a interesting information board about nearby villages history.
