Description

(Click on the bolded words for more information.)
In Montferland, many sometimes large erratic boulders have been found. These came from Scandinavia during the penultimate ice age (Saalien, approximately 238,000 – 126,000,000 years ago) carried by glacial ice. In Stokkum, a large stone was excavated (Berghse Kei) which can now be seen at the entrance of the castle in ’s-Heerenberg; in Hoch-Elten there is a ‘Findling’, and there is also one displayed on the grounds of ’t Peeske near Beek.
The stone, which is located here at the T-junction, appears to have been moved to mark this junction.
