Another modern menhir (about 150cm in height) in the area of Kutná Hora erected by members of the "Denemark" volunteer association. This time in the woods of the ancient mining location Kaňk hill, most famous in 15th century for the silver mining.
Traces of the old mining activity are ubiquitous here.
