Natural stone which has been erected to serve as war memorial.
This large boulder stands east of the town of Zeven in the Ahewald and serves as a memorial monument for the fallen of both world wars.
The plate-like stone is around 1.25 meters thick and 2.5 meters wide. It protrudes around 4 meters from the ground (there must be more underneath). The boulder consists of granite in which large pieces of potassium feldspar are enclosed. The original discovery site is near Boitzenbostel, a small village between Heeslingen and Boitzen.
According to the former local archaeologist Dr. Tempel, a whole school class could stand on it before the boulder was erected. Except for a small inscription, the stone has been left in its natural state.
