Menhir in Meuse
Neolithic 2.2 Meter tall Menhir with German pre WWI carvings, in woods 6.3 KM East of Town. These are very dense woods infested with ticks. It is recommended to come back in fall or winter and to take a local guide. The locals definately confirm it's still there.
Address: bois de Wawroils, 55300
