Sverd I fjell monument

The Viking "Harald Haarfagre" (Haarfagre = Fair-hair) was the viking that united Norway to one kingdome
He neutralized many smaller kingdoms in Norway, and the final battle was fought in the Hafersfjord.
The sword monument were put to rest in the rock next to the fjord to symbolize peace.

"Hafersfjord" is close to my home ground.
