On this beautiful path to the Boissower See and Neuenkirchener See there are several "menhirs" - the largest is almost two meters high. They add something mystical to this path.

Along this beautiful path to Lake Boissow and Lake Neuenkirchen, there are several menhirs – the largest is almost two meters high. Unfortunately, their origin and purpose are unknown to me – but they lend this path a certain mystique. They are probably former boundary stones that were placed here along the path.
Update 6/27/25:
As I drove through here again today, I had the impression that there used to be more menhirs here...Obelix probably got some for his collection. 👋😂

The Hinkelstein are boundary stones. The Mecklenburg-Schleswig-Holstein border ran along this line until 1945.
