There are rumours about the stone, which narrate about a devil, who dropped it at this place when he was flying over White Mountain. Perhaps for that reason it was called the "Devil’s Stone" in bygone days. It did not get its present name until the 19th century, when it was named after the farmer who owned the surrounding plots. Váňa’s Stone was declared to be a nature monument in 1993; there is a memorial plaque commemorating one of the biggest country rebellions in North Moravia.
