Depends entirely on the composition of stone. There is no such thing as ordinary stone, rocks are either sedimentary, volcanic, or metamorphic. They are composed of several types of minerals, all of which melt at different temperatures.

If you had a particular kind of stone in mind, say granite or limestone, than you could get an answer by looking it up online.

For example, various types of granite can be liquefied in the range of 700-1200 degrees C.
