After entering through the gate to Kulturen in Lund,
you have a restaurant on the left,
straight ahead the white house with entrance to Kulturen and
on the right is a bike rack and a lawn with trees,
planting and four rune stones.
All the rune stones have been named after the place where they
were found and then moved here.
Inside the white house are three more rune stones.
Just to the right after the entrance to the reception are three stone
from the Hunnestad Monument. You can see them through the glass door
into them, but to enter you have to pay admission.
The Hunnestad monument stood in Hunnestad outside Ystad.
It was depicted in the 1620s and then consisted of eight stones
of which two with runes and three figurines.
In 1814, parts of them were found in a fence.
The two rune stones and a figurine stone that was found are now in Kulturen.
Another of the figurines was found in a bridge foundation
in Hunnestad on 16 December 2020 during a sewer excavation.
After studying rune stones and doing a tour of Kulturen,
