The Summstein ("Humming Stone") is a modern stone sculpture situated in Dortmund-Berghofen (North Rhine-Westphalia/Germany).
Stones with similar holes have been discovered in pre-Christian catacombs on Malta. They were probably used for healing and meditation.

Very interesting Harald. From your page here http://www.megalithic.co.uk/article.php?sid=46101 "The visitor has to put the head into one of the two holes of the stone. The person has to breath out with a humming tone. The sound waves are reflected by the stone and are supposed to be felt as vibrations within the body of the visitor."
I want one :-)
