Sculptured Stone in Bohemia
Locally quite favourite stone placed inside the surface of the Premysl Otakar II. square of the south bohemian metropole České Budějovice - "Czech Budweis", home of the world class beer.. Unusual round stone with the carved cross is situated few steps SE from the Samson´s fountain.
It is said that a person who steps over the boulder in the night will never again be able to find their way home. Stone is also said to indicates the real place of the execution block - which is, by the way, very likely. According to the town chronicles record from the 1470, 10 people were accused from the murder of the town Major and executed right in the place of the stone.
