Dolmen Stone of Duisburg (Zevenster, Sonian Forest)
Highlight • Natural Monument
The stone (a chunk of quartzite, or compressed sandstone) was unearthed in 1883 in a field near Duisburg. Locals initially thought it was an impacted meteorite, which subsequently earned it the name "dry thunderstone." After considerable debate, it is now believed to be polishing stones. So, no remains of a megalithic monument, although several Stone Age artifacts have been found in the Sonian Forest.
The stone was unbroken when it was found. This happened during its transport to the Warande Park or the Warande (Tervuren Park) here, where it was brought by horse and cart in 1897 and was a showpiece at the World's Fair—although the 267 Congolese who were forcibly brought to Belgium to be exhibited as animals in a zoo that same year likely attracted more attention.
The Zevenster itself is, of course, a rather special spot with all its avenues and paths converging. You can enjoy it from various benches, including a picnic table and a "wooden throne." Incidentally, the Zevenster isn't that old. In the past, it was entirely laid out in a checkerboard pattern.
The redevelopment of the Warande, with a star-shaped instead of checkerboard pattern, took place under Charles of Lorraine in the eighteenth century. Quote: "The Warande itself also received a thorough facelift, and the original checkerboard pattern was changed to a star-shaped layout, with the various avenues converging into the 'Zevenster'."
