**Stone of the Footstep** submitted by ladrin : Massive standing stone. Surprisingly also associated with the legend of St. Adalbert. (Vote or comment on this photo)

Another stone associated with the legend about St. Vojtech (aka St. Adalbert) can be found at the foot of the hill Zelená Hora near Nepomuk town. (For more St. Adalbert´s "stony traces" see the topics St. Vojtech stone Vrčeň and St. Vojtech stone Nebílovský Borek).

Inside the little baroque chapel built in 1682 is a stone with the alleged footprint of the saint. A second stone, and perhaps more interesting is located in the forested slope just above the chapel. Tall and massive standing stone, most likely of natural origin. According to the legend it is the place where the saint preached.
