In front of the church in Leermens stands a glacial erratic known locally as the Leermster Stain. There used to be another stone at this location but it probably got lost in 1906 when a pool of water was filled up to build a pub. The current stone comes from the village of Rolde and was transferred to Leermens in 1974.
