Bousignies-sur-Roc (French pronunciation:[buziɲisyʁʁɔk]) is acommune in theNorddepartment in northernFrance.[3]

In early 2021, the commune made international headlines[4] after some historians on a walk noticed that a stone marking the French-Belgian border near the village was moved by about two meters into the French territory.[5] Internationally, it was initially reported that the stone was moved by a Belgian farmer who was frustrated about the stone blocking the path of his tractor.[6][7] However, the owner of the area that encompasses the stone, David Lavaux, is a veterinarian who claims that he never moved the stone.[8]As of June 2021, it was discovered that the stone has not been moved back since the initial report.[9]
