Sverd i fjell monument Norway

von Polly Spring: Norway

Three bronze swords, each standing 10 meters (33 ft) tall, are planted into the hillside rock near the fjord at Sverd i fjell in Norway. This sculpture commemorates the Battle of Hafrsfjord which occurred at this exact location back in 872. The swords stand next to a fjord on a small hill and are made of bronze with a weathered look.
