Devil's Stone. Rock carvings found on Hov beach in Nordlangeland. Now on display in Holland's house. The name might suggest it has been taboo. The black color of the bottom is probably due to tar. Two neolithic foot carvings on the side.

Dansk: Djævlestenen på Nordlangeland. Nok Fyns fineste helleristningssten med over 100 skåltegn og helleristninger. Af blandt andet fødder, som kan ses her ved min hånd. Stenen blev fundet på Hov-strand og vejer 3,5 ton. Navnet kunne tyde på, den har været tabu. Stenen er placeret i naturudstillingen i Hollænderhus - Houvej, Nordlangeland. Der er gratis adgang til udstillingen i åbningstiden.
