The menhir is located in the marsh of Aubigny-au-Bac, on a footpath leading to Brunémont. It is a block of Landenian sandstone 2.90 m high (including 1.48 m above ground) by 2.15 m wide and 0.70 m thick. It is said to have been sunk to about 2.40 m. Shaped like a horse's head, it is associated with a prehistoric megalith despite the absence of evidence.

A Brief History Note. Roucourt Castle was built at the end of the 18th century by Monsieur Béranger, a cannon founder under the Empire. …During World War I, the castle was occupied by the squadron and men of Captain Baron Von Richthofen, known as the "Red Baron," who sheltered his planes in the avenue of over 100-year-old lime trees that precede the entrance gate. Destroyed by fire in 1918, it was rebuilt between 1921 and 1923 and restored in 1997 by Colette and Guy Becquet de Mégille, the current owners.

Medieval Gœulzin Castle from the 17th century. During the Great War, this castle was occupied by German troops, pillaged and abandoned. Its ruined state dates from this period.

They are part of the unknown treasures of Arras and the Pays d'Artois. The various megalithic sites are good for a beautiful walk, among mysteries and legends, history and extraordinary landscapes. Set sail for the Scarpe valley and the Sensée valley, in the wake of the megaliths of the Pays d'Artois.

The ruins of Goeulzin Castle are what remains of a medieval fortress which was burned down twice in the 16th century and rebuilt by a Count of Bucquoy. The castle, located in the marshy Sensée valley, played a defensive role until the 18th century, when it was abandoned and pillaged. We can still see the remains of its walls, its towers and its main facade with this characteristic plan of stepped gables. You can also admire the neighboring tower which served as an ice house and dovecote in the 18th century.

The story goes that once the people of the country showed the scratches produced, according to legend, by the claws of the demon when he seized the stone. Streaks do indeed appear on two sides of the menhir… But are they the same as before or do they come from the destruction of the stone in 1918
