Runic plate U145 from Fällbrogård

The rune stones from Fällbro are located at the farm that gives it its name and the Fällbro Bridge north of Täby in Uppland in Sweden .

The courtyard has roots in the Iron Age and is surrounded by burial grounds from the younger Iron Age (0 to 500 AD) with three rune plates (U 145, U146 and U Fv1946; 258) and the rune stone U 142. The rune plate U Fv1946; 258, discovered in 1946, lies on the grave field opposite the courtyard. South of the courtyard is the rune stone U 142, one of the Jarlabankestenarna . About 100 meters to the south, at the Fällbro over the brook that forms the border between Fällbro and Hagby, are the rune plates U 145 and U 146. Three of the four incisions mention the bridge.
