These two stones lie on an extensive meadow, each protected betweem two trees. They are 220 m distant from each other.
We assume an old route from České Budějovice to Blatná and nort route from Hluboká nad Vltavou to Vodnany led across this area. Vodňany, 7 km away, are nice to see from the stand.

Zbudov Zbudov - The engraving of a cross

The engraving of a cross is able to be seen quite clearly on this stone, so it may be that these stones used to be border stones.
