Sars-Poteries, near the Belgian border. The tip of a menhir, about 1,6 m high.

It stands at the edge of the Place du Vieux Marché, and overlooks the Rue V. Hugo which runs downhill from the church. It has been erected on a concrete basis. Every inhabitant of the village knows about this megalith, and its virtues... The alternative name, Pierre Sybise, is rather a phonetic variant.
