Fosiestenen

The Fosie Stone is the only surviving runestone in Malmö and now stands at Fosie Church, in a southern suburb of the city in Scania. The granite block, slightly damaged on one side, measures 1.85 meters (6 ft) high, 0.8 meters (2.6 ft) wide, and 0.7 meters (2.3 ft) thick. It no longer stands in its original location but was moved to the church. The plain inscription follows the RAK runestone style and consists of two straight, vertical rows of runes. As a historical monument, it offers you a glimpse into the early medieval writing culture of the region.
