This definately looks pagan | Sheena (2004-05-27) | Looks like a Celtic stone head to me!! | majoky (2006-07-02) | In Germany there are nearly always wells close to chapels or churches dedicated to St. Anna, some still intact or visible, some survived only in tales and stories. Same with St.Michael - he was the one to christianize pagan sites on hilltops. |
