Tips
Nils Dacke was born on the Hult farm in Vissefjärda municipality. Vissefjärda used to be an important border area in trade with Denmark. The so-called "Dackefejden" took place here in 1543. The feud led by Nils Dacke was due to great dissatisfaction with King Gustav Wasa. The stone comes from Nils Dackes Hof in Södra Lindön. On the stone there is a crossbow symbolically pointing to King Gustav Wasa in the direction of Stockholm.
