Husova kazatelna, Natural monument in Petrovice, Czech Republic.

Husova kazatelna stands as a massive boulder measuring 4 by 2.5 meters with a height of 2.7 meters, formed through weathering of deep magmatic rocks.

The natural monument received its official protection status on February 8, 1977, establishing preservation measures for this geological formation in Central Bohemia.

Local legends connect this stone to Master Jan Hus, suggesting he delivered sermons from its surface during his travels toward Kozí Hrádek.

The monument sits at 513 meters above sea level and connects to marked tourist trails, with both blue and red routes providing access to visitors.

The stone features a natural basin at its top, created through selective weathering processes and chemical dissolution of the durbachite rock material.
