Runestones in Ekerö municipality.
Overview map
 and registers for more detailed information

Ekerö municipality has 63 known runestones!

Of these, 33 are OK, 24 are broken and 6 are missing.


Runestones are more than runic inscriptions…

Runestones are works of art and need colors to be experienced.

Here, the runestones have been colored as when they were new 1000 years ago. They have also been interpreted by me as modern runecarver, which has led to new discoveries and surprises.
