Sverd i fjell, located in Stavanger, Norway, is a striking monument consisting of three giant bronze swords planted into the ground. Erected in 1983 by sculptor Fritz Røed, the monument commemorates the historic Battle of Hafrsfjord in 872, where King Harald Fairhair unified Norway into one kingdom. The swords symbolize peace, unity, and freedom, with the largest representing the victorious king and the smaller ones standing for the defeated petty kings.
