Anthony Gormley´s famous iron statues look you straight in the eye when you least expect them to be there. They are truly beautiful. Stavanger would not be the same without them.

Bicycle over to visit the impressive monument Swords in Rock. From the village centre, continue along the shores of Mosvatn lake, then along Rv510 towards Sola. Mollebukta is a popular recreational area, especially in summer. Around 30 min. bicycle ride each way.

At Hafrsfjord we find the monument Swords in Rock. It was here Harald Harfagre fought a battle that united Norway into one kingdom in 872 AD. The monument represents peace, unity and freedom. The Viking swords' hilts are modelled on swords found in various parts of the country. The monument was made by Friz Roed (1928-2002) and unveiled by King Olav in 1983. The monument can be reached by bus nr. 29 from the centre of Stavanger.

This beautiful art installation of three large viking swords embedded in the rock is set there to commemorate a large viking battle that took place in 872, which Harald Harfagre won and thereby united Norway into one kingdom.
