Laeborg Runestone, Norse runestone in Læborg, Denmark

The Laeborg Runestone, standing at 236 centimeters tall, displays two lines of runic text written in the younger futhark script on granite stone.

Discovered around 1638 in a field north of Læborg, the runestone was later moved to its current location outside the village hall.

The stone features two depictions of Thor's hammer Mjöllnir, representing Norse religious practices during the transition period between paganism and Christianity.

Located at coordinates 55.5230068, 9.1145685, the runestone stands approximately 3 kilometers north of Vejen, making it accessible for visitors.

The inscription mentions a woman named Thyrve, described as trutnik, indicating her status as either the wife or descendant of a lord.
