Standing Stones in Öland
On the seashore near Ottenby royal demesne, numerous ancient monuments lie. They seem to be divided into 3 parts : the northern parts including flat standing stones and a stone circle, the middle part including mounds in a line and the southern part including white boulders forming some kinds of geometric pattern.
