Removed from a nearby field in 1968, identified as a menhir in 1970 and re-erected in its present location in 1972.
Chaumont, Rue des Moutons until the end of the asphalted surface, then 200 m on an earth road, suitable for ordinary car.
Typical for the menhir of the region are (1) the trapezoidal shape and (2) the use of landenian sandstone (best seen from the back).
