Fjärdhundraland has a rich history and the memories of our ancestors are everywhere. From the Stone Age to the present, people have lived, worked and traded here, and left their marks. And a lot is still here - runestones along roads that a thousand years ago were Viking-age riding paths, and tombs of ancient great men. Let the wings of history fly!
