Jetsmark runestone
The rune stone from Jetsmark (DR 160; DK NJy13 or NJy 13) is located in the Karnhaus of the church of Pandrup , northwest of Aalborg on the island of Vendsyssel-Thy in Jutland in Denmark .

The stone from the Viking Age (800-1050 AD) protrudes about 1.2 m from the earth and is 65 cm wide and 32 cm thick at the base.
