The Stone That Obeyed a Whip

On the road between Červená Řečice and Rovné stands a cross with a large stone beneath it. People say that it once appeared out of nowhere in a farmer’s yard in Rovné. The farmer took a whip, and the stone began rolling of its own accord until it stopped beneath the cross. Another legend says that a treasure is hidden below the cross.
