A rune stone from around 800AD with pictures and text. Situated in a small visitor centre with leaflets and interpretation boards. Nice!
Additional information submitted by Drew Parsons in September 2011: The visitor centre is right by the church. There are excellent display panels and the stone is located inside the small centre. Postcards and leaflets are available there too. The rune stone is unusual as it is a four sided stone with elaborate carvings on all four sides.
