Bexells talande stenar, Stone inscriptions site in Torstorpsskogen, Sweden.
The site contains hundreds of inscribed stones and boulders with philosophical quotes and names spanning across a forested area near Varberg.
At the end of the 19th century, landowner Alfred Bexell commissioned two stone cutters to carve inscriptions on rocks throughout his estate for seven years.
The collection features over 160 carved quotations and 560 names of historical figures, including Aristotle, Beethoven, and Swedish personalities.
Visitors can reach the site by following road 153 to Rolfstorp, turning right at Grimeton, and continuing to the designated parking area with information boards.
Some inscriptions remain hidden under moss layers, with new carvings discovered periodically throughout the forest area.
