Tjelvar's Grave

Stone ship reputed to be the grave of Tjelvar, the mythical discoverer of Gotland.

What's interesting about Tjelvar's tale is that when he discovered the island, it was under a spell that made it rise from and sink back to the sea. Given that Faro was marshy and partly submerged a thousand years ago (there is evidence of a small Viking harbor in an area now quite a distance inland and dry) and the island is continually rising due to glacial rebound, it's conceivable that this element of the myth contains a germ of truth.
