Standing Stone (Menhir) in Rhineland-Palatinate
Der Stein wurde 1930 unterhalb des Schwarzen Mannes von Forstarbeitern zum Gedenken an den Forstmeister Ivo Jansen errichtet. Das Interessante daran ist, dass es sich bei diesem umfunktionierten Gedenkstein um einen uralten Menhir (Hinkelstein) handelt.
