Around it are 20 graves and 5 stone ship settings (two of them especially impressive when seen from the large burial mound). There is also a rune stone and a stone row. The latter is not prehistoric but was built in the middle ages to mark the route taken by the King of Sweden on his visit to the area. Also known as Skeppssättning (Ship Setting)
