Björn Järnsida's (Ironside) burial mound in Sweden 🇸🇪 In the early 18th century, a burial mound on the island of Munsö was claimed by antiquarians to be Björn Järnsidas hög or Björn Ironside's burial mound. The runestone crowns the burial mound of him in Uppland. The stone is a fragment and has the no. U 13 in the index list. The runestone was actually in a different location, but was moved here to give the place a mystical impression. The runes are translated as: … Þorgautr, they … spirit and God's … Today the place has become a small pilgrimage site for us pagans, which, as you can see, is often visited and large and small offerings are left behind. It was one of my favorite places to visit this year.
