Stone Circle in Gotland

The stone ship setting measures 19 x 4.5 m. On the north side of the ship there is a cairn with a diameter of 5.5 m. In 1928 the site was investigated. Burned legs and pots were found. From a drawing made in 1799 one knows that just south of the ship three stones were in line as a beautiful tail. They are gone long ago. To get to this location you have to cross the paddock at 57.103633N 18.515867E. Use the stiles on both sides to enter and exit. Parking is possible near the information sign on road 142 (57.105200N, 18.318033E).
