Sculptured Stone in Swietokrzyskie
Near the track leading to the top of Łysa Góra, there is a mysterous sculpture called Pielgrzym (“The Pilgrim”). It’s age is unknown – it was linked with early medieval and later medieval period, but it might be much older. The legend says, that Pielgrzym moves for distance of 1 sand pebble every year – when he will reach the top of Łysa Góra, it will mean the end of the world.
