The original site of the Tullstorp Runestone is unknown. It was discovered when the old church in Tullstorp was torn down in 1846. The stone first ended up in the wall surrounding the church yard, later it was moved to the current position inside the church yard. It is from c. 1000 AD. The beast and the ship in the picture probably reflects the Ragnarök myth .
