Sønder Vissing Runestone, Norse runestone in Horsens Municipality, Denmark.
The stone bears runic inscriptions carved into its surface and stands near Sønder Vissing Church at specific coordinates of 56.0232 latitude and 9.6422 longitude.
Discovered in 1836 as part of a stone fence around the church cemetery, this 10th-century monument was studied by P. G. Thorsen who published his findings in 1839.
The inscription reveals that Tofa, daughter of Mstivoj and wife of Harald Bluetooth, created this memorial stone to commemorate her mother's memory.
Visitors can find the runestone inside Sønder Vissing Church next to the organ, where it was relocated in 1897 for preservation purposes.
This runestone represents one of the few examples where a woman commissioned the creation of such a monument during the Viking Age in Denmark.
