Menhir in Saarland
Positional co-ordinates scaled from a map source. Menhir now 2.7 Meter tall that used to be ca. 6 Meter tall in the 19th Century and used to be located at the Rösberg. It was shortened when it was moved to the Park in front of the water tower. Sacrilege, but better than losing it completely.
