Description

The cave drawings at Tanum are a fascinating Bronze Age monument, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Covering an area of 51 hectares, there are more than 3,000 petroglyphs depicting ships, sledges, animals, people, hand and footprints, trees and weapons.

These intriguing engravings, located 25-30 meters above sea level, are a unique source of knowledge about the daily life, spiritual practices and rituals of the ancient Scandinavians.

Particularly impressive is the Fossum petroglyph, which stands out for its coherent composition of many figures arranged in a thoughtful pattern.
