Tullstorp Runestone, Norse runestone at Tullstorp Church, Sweden.

The granite runestone measures 1.7 meters in height and features runic text inscribed along a serpentine band framing a central ship design.

The stone was incorporated into the wall of an earlier church until 1846, when workers discovered it during the demolition of the structure.

The inscription includes both text and imagery, with a carved ship and wolf figure that connect to Norse mythology and storytelling traditions.

The runestone stands in the cemetery of Tullstorp Church, located 7 kilometers northeast of Klagstorp in the Trelleborg Municipality.

The carved text contains the phrase 'reistu kuml,' a rare inscription formula that appears on only seven other known runestones in Scandinavia.
