South of a windmill on a hill, stone circle, round cairn and standing stones situated like an outdoor exhibition of a museum. The Fornlämningar (=antiquity) page of Upptäck Öland (=Discover Öland) tells that there are more sites including a stone ship on the north side of the hill across a road, but the area is surrounded by cattle fence with electricity and the sites are not evident.
