Hagby Runestones, Viking memorial stones in Täby Municipality, Sweden.
Four large stone monuments with intricate runic inscriptions stand in the courtyard of Hagby farm, displaying ancient Nordic writing patterns and designs.
The stones were discovered embedded in basement walls of Litzby farm in 1929, leading to the reconstruction of 120 fragments into their current form.
The inscriptions commemorate family members who died in eastern expeditions, revealing connections between Swedish Vikings and territories near present-day Kiev.
The stone monuments are located at coordinates 59.473255, 18.020915, with direct access from Stockholm-Bromma Airport nine miles away.
The runestones contain text about brothers Sveinn and Ulfr, who created memorials for their siblings Halfdan and Gunnarr after their deaths in distant lands.
