Ziemeļos no Viļāniem (Jaunviļānos) atrodas ar mežu apaudzis osveidīgs paugurs – t.s. Kaupra kalns, kurā virsotnē meklējams (ceļa uz Trūpiem malā izvietota norāde) minētais akmens. Trīsdaļīgā akmens, kas atrodas mežā, garums ir 4 m, platums 3 m, augstums 1,9 m. Lielākās daļas virspusē var saskatīt nelielu dobumu, tādēļ pastāv viedoklis, ka šis ir sens kultakmens. |
