Log Text: For being so large and so close to the road, this menhir is quite hard to find. What was once a nice grassy area is now fully overgrown with brushy trees that stand taller than the stone. If you know it is there and were to look, you can catch glimpses of it through the greenery.

Log Text: Fascinating to be able to see the oldest accessible cave paintings in Europe. Wonderfully helpful guide who knew our French was not up to snuff, so he would summarize often in English. The series of (inaccessible) caves along the Cure river are also interesting to visit with overviews of the archaeological history of each one and the important discoveries there.

Heidenstein (Schwörstadt) submitted by AlexHunger on 4th Sep 2005. Heidenstein - Schwörstadt (Front)
Front upright orthostat with "Soul Hole" and only remainder of former Dolmen. 1.9 Meter tall and about 3 meters wide and dated to about 2500 BC.
The cap stone was alledgedly carted away by the local blacksmith several decades ago. The rear side shows traces of fire due to the burning of trash. Archeologists have marked out the outline of the rest of the dolmen with bricks and set up an information sign.
It and the Toten Mann are the southernmost Dolmen...

Log Text: We first read the information panel, outlining the excavation and finds, and then on the "inside" of the dolmen we found some freshly laid flowers, which made the dry numbers or excavated skeletal remains in the information seem a little more human.
