Phallus Stone (Sangdong-ri, Changdeok-ri)
Two phallus stones whose production date has been unknown are granite engraved with lotus patterns. They have been also considered as Maitreya so that infertile women can have a baby when they pray at them on the day of the first full moon of every lunar year. Praying at the object of folk belief, many women have been said to conceive a baby boy.
