Treudd of Jordhamn
The Treudd von Jordhamn is located near the coast between Jordhamn and Gillberga in the north on the Swedish island of Öland .
The Treudd is mostly a stone pavement that is framed by curbs and slightly raised compared to the surrounding area. Probably from the Iron Age coming three-armed stone settings with concave sides are a special form of Roese . The distance between the three corner points of the arms in this relatively small Treudd (there are lengths up to 33.0 m) is about 11.0 m. The curbs with heights of 0.3 to 0.9 m and widths of 0.6 to 1.15 m are unusually large. The corner points are marked with red granite stones up to 1.3 m high .
Nearby is the Jordhamn scrubbing mill, Öland's only remaining scrubbing mill. Among other things, you can find the fossil orthocerates typical of Öland here. There is a large limestone quarry south of Gillberga. On the coast southwest of the village are the Gillberga raukar .
