Rune stone at Fjenneslev church, Zealand, Denmark. c.1.8 metres tall. Commemorates the building of a bridge in the 12th century. By Fjenneslev Church is a rune stone called Fjenneslevstenen or Sasserstenen. It informs us that 'Sasser raised stone and built bridge' . It has been dated to late viking period or early medieval period; Sasser is not known, but he might have been a part of Toke Trylle's family. The name diversion 'Asser' is used also later in the Hvide-family. To build a bridge in early Christian time was a true deed of faith and something to be remembered for. Fjenneslev was a place of importance, and the late uncertain date of the stone allows the hypothesis that the stone might be raised by Asser Skjalmsen Rig. 固opFoto / Fortean
