Lanksēde Devil’s Foot Stone

Other references to the location
It is situated in the Imula River closer to the right bank of the Imula River, in straight line about 200 – 300 m upwards the Imula Bridge.

Description
On the surface of the Lanksēde Devil’s Foot (1.6 x 1.4 x 0.8 m), one can notice a cavity resembling a human foot (0.28 x 0.15 x 0.01 m). The stone, the foot and some other places of the surroundings are related to tales about the Devil. The location of the Lanksēde Devil’s Foot Stone in the middle of the river is not typical for foot stones, to which this stone is attributed. As the Imula River’s banks are high at this place, the vale is narrow and the river often changes its bed, it is possible that the stone with the foot mark used to be on the bank of the river, but in the course of time it fell into the Imula river. Right there not far from the Lanksēde Mill’s neighbour homestead of Arāji, a burial ground was established, but a few kilometres further the Ķempji Piltiņkalns Hill is located.
