This ancient monument consists of a rectangle of stones. It's built around a natural height and thus the hill is rounded up of giant greystones. The sides of the rectangle measures up to 50 meters. From the beginning it was around 250 stones but today only 95 remains, of which 23 are still standing. Opinions differ on what the purpose was to the stone formation. Maybe the purpose has changed over time. Ideas have been put forward that the monument have been about sun worship. Another idea is that it was a pagan sacrificial site. A third theory is that it is an old Pagan burial site. Most scientists agree that the stones were erected during the Viking era to show that the land was sacred and meant for burial of unburned dead. The third weekend in September there's a Viking market that takes place with thousands of Vikings, traditional food and much more. Enrty fee to the market.
