The Runestone of Skånela Church

This runestone is located at Skånela church in Sigtuna. It was used as a threshold to the church's vestibule until 1941, which resulted in some damage to certain parts of the stone and the loss of one name in the script. The stone features a winged serpent, similar to the one on U 305, and is carved in the Urnes style.

The inscription on the stone tells a story of family lineage. Translated into modern Swedish, it reads: 'Viger had the stone cut after [?], his son. Fastlög had the stone cut after his brother Fulluge.'

The stone serves as a historical record of these individuals, though some text remains lost due to the stone's historical use as a door threshold.
