Jordbro Grave Field, Iron Age burial ground in Haninge Municipality, Sweden

The burial site spans across 500 meters in length and 300 meters in width, containing 660 archaeological monuments distributed on both sides of the Nynäs railway line.

Dating from 500 BC to 500 AD, the site includes one burial mound, numerous stone circles, ship settings, and over 300 different stone formations marking ancient graves.

The graves and artifacts found at Jordbro reveal the burial practices of Iron Age communities, including cremation rituals and the placement of personal belongings with the deceased.

Visitors can access the site through a small parking lot in the north, following Gullringsvägen through the forest to reach the marked paths and information boards.

Archaeological excavations near the railroad revealed traces of a Stone Age hut, indicating human presence in the area long before the Iron Age burial ground was established.
