Devil's Stone on the Stone Lake
Credit: Rafał KonkolewskiDevil's Stone (Diabelski Kamień) lies on the shore of the Stone Lake (Jezioro Kamienne) near the village of Strzepcz in the Kashubian Lakeland. The multitude of lakes and erratics in this region has been left by an ice sheet which retreated from what is now northern Poland at the end of the last glacial period about 11,500 years ago. Devil's Stone, like other boulders in this area, has played a role in local folk legends and beliefs.
