A rugged 1,8 m tall slate standing stone with an attached iron cross. Even its mystical name of God's Rock calls out for attention. It dominates the small hill above the town of Jílové u Prahy in Bohemia.
Its position between the old trees creates a place of awesome atmosphere. The stone stands just a few steps from the little summit where unnatural looking terrain and rock formations can be found.
