Martin_L visited on 1st Jul 2019 - their rating: Cond: 3 Amb: 2 Access: 5 Very nice menhir. After it got knocked over it has been set up at a slightly different location in a rather non-desirable way. At least it survived, but the ambience is definitely is not good although the surrounding rural landscape is quite beautiful.
Exact GPS position. Very shapely Ca. 2 Meters tall Menhir next to brook ca 500 Meters east of town. The original Location of stone was N49.81272 E7.99535, about 300 meters away, before the stone was moved to comunal land to facility ploughing for local farmer.
