Sjörup Runestone, Norse runestone at Sjörups gamla kyrka, Sweden.
The Sjörup Runestone stands near the old church, featuring carved inscriptions that follow a counter-clockwise pattern from the lower right to the center.
During the 18th century, the stone was broken into six pieces for bridge construction, but specialists restored and relocated it near Sjörup Church in 1990.
The inscription mentions Ásbjörn, son of Tóki Gormsson, and includes references to the Battle of Fýrisvellir, connecting it to medieval Swedish conflicts.
Located at coordinates 55.441111 latitude and 13.635833 longitude in Ystad Municipality, the stone remains accessible for research and public viewing.
The stone displays orthographic variations in its text, reflecting pronunciation uncertainties of the Viking Age Norse language.
