Steintanz von Boitin, Stone circle in Tarnow, Germany

The Boitiner Steintanz is a prehistoric site of three adjoining stone circles plus a fourth circle about 140 metres to the south-east, with 30 menhirs up to roughly 1.6 m tall standing in forest clearings. The circles measure 8.0 m, 11.5 m, 13.2 m and 13.6 m across; the main stone of the large circle, the "Brautlade", has 13 square holes on its inner face.

The site's age is only estimated; Iron Age finds may point to later burials. It was first mentioned in writing in 1765. A fifth circle, about 6 m across with 10 stones, is said to have existed earlier.

The stones carry a name tied to an old wedding celebration, showing how the local community has long connected this place to its folklore. Visitors can see how the arrangement and shape of the stones have inspired storytelling across generations.

A marked trail guides visitors through the forest to the stone circles, making navigation straightforward. The site is most enjoyable during warmer months when forest paths are dry and easy to walk on.

The primary stone features thirteen square indentations on its inner surface, with eleven of them clearly visible and possibly used for timekeeping. This hole arrangement is distinctive and suggests the structure served astronomical or calendar purposes.
