Nr. Nærå runesten - Nørre Nærå, Denmark - Runestones Worldwide on Waymarking.com

Runesten i Nørre Nærå kirke på Nordfyn. I nyere tid har stenen været kendt siden den blev fundet 1684 og i slutningen af 1700-tallet blev bygget ind i kirkegårdsdiget for derefter at blive flyttet ind i våbenhuset. Endnu senere er den blevet rykket til sin nuværende placering nær koret.

Indskriften kan oversættes med noget i retning af "Brug kumlet. Thormund." eller "Thormund. Nyd kumlet." Vikingen, der i ældre vikingetid (800-900) blev udødeliggjort på stenen, hed Thormund. Så meget ved vi, men hvad "nyd kumlet" præcis dækker over, ved man ikke. Nogle arkæologer mener, at der er tale om en slags magi. Den smukke sten kan ses, når kirken er åben.

English: The runes in Nørre Nærå church on Nordfyn. In recent times, the stone has been known since it was found in 1684 and at the end of the 18th century was built into the cemetery dyke and then moved into the armory. Still later it has been moved to its present location near the chancel.

The inscription can be translated with something like "Use kumlet. Thormund." or "Thormund. Enjoy the kuml." The Viking who was immortalized on the stone in the older Viking Age (800-900) was called Thormund. That much we know, but what exactly "enjoy the kuml" covers, you don't know. Some archaeologists believe that it is a kind of magic. The beautiful stone can be seen when the church is open.
