Swords in Rock

4.5

/ 5.0
Swords in Rock, or 'Sverd i Fjell,' is a striking monument located in Hafrsfjord, Norway. It features three large swords planted into the ground, commemorating the historic Battle of Hafrsfjord in 872, which led to the unification of Norway under King Harald Fairhair. This site is both a symbol of peace, as the swords remain lodged in the rock and cannot be used, and a popular tourist attraction offering picturesque views of the surrounding area.
