Stones of Mora, Medieval royal election site near Uppsala, Sweden
The Stones of Mora comprises several stone fragments housed in a small building located in the Storån Valley of Lagga parish.
Magnus Ladulås received his crown at the Stones of Mora in 1275, establishing a tradition that continued until Christian I's election in 1457.
The stone fragments represent Sweden's early democratic process, where kings needed approval from regional representatives before ascending to power.
The monument stands one mile southeast of Uppsala Cathedral, with the remaining stones protected inside a structure built by Carl Wijnbladh in 1770.
The Stone of Three Crowns fragment contains the earliest known representation of Sweden's national symbol, dating from Albert of Mecklenburg's election.
