Standing Stone in Bohemia

Less known massive, three metres tall monolith hidden between pine trees near the village of Hrachov in the region of Slapy dam. Because there are no records to be found about it, I assume that the stone was recently re-erected. The area around Sedlčany town, is rich for many erratic and often solitary stones. The true is, that around this special place some interesting pillar like stones lies fallen. It looks like remnants of an old megalithic stone settings.
