85 cm tall piece of red sandstone of unusual shape. It is supposed to be either medieval propitiatory cross-stone or milestone or an ancient menhir. On its front side is hardly recognizable enigmatic carving of the person in skirt with the hands up. On the back side is several symmetrically located stone depressions which is also not typical.
