Log Text: Because of the size and the length of the written rune text, it is probably the most impressive rune stone I have seen so far. A really detailed information center is just near the stone by the south of the church.

Log Text: Several thousand stones were erected here by the National Socialist government. As a result, several previously preserved megalithic graves in the vicinity of Verden were probably destroyed. After its dark past as a National Socialist meeting place, the area now belongs to the Lutheran Church and is used as a local recreation area.
