Standing Stone (Menhir) in Bohemia
Lying stone stele in front of little church of St Anthony of Padua in Hradiště, these days suburb of beautiful old town Znojmo. This place is the area of an ancient stronghold of old Slavs, an important centre of Great Moravian Empire. The stone is probably old pagan burial stone. It reminds me burial stones from Neumětely (for the details see the topic "Great stones of Neumětely").
