One of Sweden's richest landscapes for ancient remains

Roslagen and the wider Uppland region hold the densest concentration of runestones on earth. Add the Bronze-Age rock carvings and the Iron-Age hillforts on the ridges, and the whole landscape becomes an open-air archive. Here are 490 of these sites, each plotted on the map and linked to the official record at the Swedish National Heritage Board.
