Morokulien, Peace monument at Norway-Sweden border, Norway

The Peace Monument stands at the border between Norway and Sweden, marking a geographical point where both countries meet in Eidskog municipality.

Erected in 1914, the monument commemorates a century of peace between Norway and Sweden, with over 12,000 people attending its inauguration ceremony.

The name combines Norwegian word 'moro' and Swedish word 'kul', both meaning fun, reflecting the shared linguistic heritage of these Nordic nations.

The tourist center provides guided tours of the six-hectare area, allowing visitors to cross the border freely without passport requirements.

An amateur radio station operates under two different call signs: LG5LG for Norway and SJ9WL for Sweden, connecting operators across borders.
