Maloja Stone with ornaments
Maloja Stone with ornaments submitted by Megalithic89 : Site in Graubünden Switzerland (Vote or comment on this photo)
On the stone is a "Celtic Rose", a circular figure with weathered ornamentation and a strange figure with a bowl and 5 quarter to semicircles around the bowl, with a straight groove engraved. The find location of the stone is unknown. Today it is located east of a hiking path outside the village of Maloja. It is easy to find. With a little patience you could get there with a wheelchair on the large nature trail.
