Boeddel visited on 31st Mar 2018 - their rating: Cond: 1 Access: 5 direct on the street. one of the most unsuitable places where you can put a rune stone.
For as long as anyone can remember, this runic stone has stood on Storegade in Rønne on Bornholm. Legend has it that it was erected on the spot where the Swedish Commandant Johan Printzenschiold was shot and killed in December 1658. The stone is still standing but the inscription had been worn away by the time it was first examined in the beginning of the 1800s. It is therefore impossible to determine what was written on it or how old it is.
