Lugnarohögen, Bronze Age burial mound in Hasslöv, Sweden.

The earthen mound rises 3.75 meters high and contains an eight-meter-long stone ship structure with taller stones marking the bow and stern.

Archaeological excavations in 1926 revealed burned human bones and Bronze Age artifacts, including a miniature sword with antenna-like grip, tweezers, and an awl.

The stone ship formation within the mound reflects Bronze Age burial practices in southern Sweden, representing the connection between maritime culture and funeral rituals.

Visitors can explore the interior of the burial mound through a small building that houses an exhibition about the archaeological findings.

The burial mound contains a stone ship setting with 40-centimeter tall stones arranged in a vessel formation, covered by layers of earth.
