Behind the cathedral is a very old Viking burial stone dating back to the year 1000. Found in the east chapel, it has a rune text engraved in the shape of a snake. The translation can be found on a nearby descriptive panel: "Stone erected by Tyke the Viking in memory of Gunnar, son of Grim. May God protect his soul".

The runic alphabet is also detailed: the opportunity to write your first name with the letters of the ancient Scandinavian peoples.
