Kolomanistein, Natural monument and chapel in Eisgarn, Austria

The Kolomanistein consists of two granite blocks stacked on top of each other, measuring 5 meters in length and 2.5 meters in height.

In 1713, local authorities commissioned the construction of a chapel-like structure over the stone basin, incorporating a statue of Saint Koloman from the 18th century.

The stone features a water-filled basin where, according to regional accounts, Saint Koloman, an Irish pilgrim, stopped to rest during his journey eastward.

Visitors can reach the upper section of the monument through a series of 13 stone steps carved directly into the granite formation.

The stone basin at the top of the monument retains water throughout the year, leading to local beliefs about its medicinal properties.
