ŁUZKI, GM. JABŁONNA LACKA, POV. SOKOŁOWSKI

An erratic boulder, partially hewn. It originally served as a boundary stone on the border of the villages of Luzki and Czekanów. According to Kazimierz Stołyhwo, the stone has an anthropomorphic form and is a cult object, while Roman Jakimowicz favors its function as a boundary marker.
The stone was originally located on the border of fields between the villages of Luzki and Niemirki. According to a local legend, the boulder stood on the grave of a witch, hence the stone's proper name "Witch".
A horseshoe sign was carved in the upper part of the stone, an isosceles cross in the middle, and a Maltese cross in the lower part. On the opposite side of the stone, a footprint was carved in its lower part.
In 2006, the stone was moved to Czekanow and placed in front of the local church.
