Where is the runestone?

The runestone lies down and serves as a lintel to the church, to the left of the entrance to the armory and in the southern wall.

Reconstructed image
Perhaps it looked and was experienced like this once upon a time. With its simple ornamentation without details such as dragons and snakes, it is perhaps one of the older of the Hilleshög and Färingsö runestones.
