The Stone is in the garden of the church. Augerum Church is located next to the Lyckebyån river. The church building, designed by architect Jacob Wilhelm Gerss, was built in the neoclassic style in 1819-1822, but the exterior was altered by the erection of a tower in the north according to drawings by architect Törnqvist.
The stone serves as a tomb stone, difficult to read the name, the dates on it: 18xx - 1892.
The stone is not among the graves but next to the church, so the church was built next to stone or the stone was rather moved here from its original place.
