Lentokenttä glacial erratics, Registered archaeological site near Turku Airport, Finland.
The Lentokenttä glacial erratics consist of numerous large boulders scattered across the landscape near Turku Airport, displaying different mineral compositions and geological formations.
These glacial erratics were transported and deposited by massive ice sheets during the last Ice Age, approximately 12,000 years ago, shaping the Finnish landscape.
Local Finnish residents refer to the largest boulder as Devil's Den, reflecting traditional folklore that connected mysterious natural formations with supernatural entities.
