Slim Menhir with carved head. On a hill oppsite side of Corsoli village across the road, this leanest statue-menhir stands between the Chapelle Santa Maria and a ruined building. This statue-menhir is believed as the metamorphose of a punished lazy woman who neglected to attend the church.
Well-signposted but indicated as "Chapelle Santa Maria + Petra Frisgiata statue menhir"
