@Warpwaffel Denmark also has what I'll call a rock legend. There's a huge rock on the island Fyn (Fuen to the English) that's easily the size of a really large van, we call it Jættestenen (the Jotun Stone). There's signs pointing the way to it and everything.
As the myth goes, there where two giant siblings, Big Belt and Little Belt, both eponymous with existing bodies of water. The older brother Big Belt shaped the island Fyn as a gigantic art project, and his sister Little Belt envied his landscaping skills so much that she threw the biggest rock she could find at him. Lacking some skill in throwing, the rock only made it halfway there, landing on Fyn where it now serves as a minor tourist attraction.
