Fribrødre Raiding

Grønsund, situated between Zealand and Falster, forms the main natural channel from the Baltic to the archipelago southwest of Zealand. In 1981, around 2km south of Stubbekøbing, archaeologists found wellpreserved but well-worn ship parts from several different ships. The planks had been held together with small, tightly spaced wooden nails; a feature normally associated with Slavic shipbuilding traditions.  The find is now interpreted as a marine repair and scrappage centre from the beginning of the 1000s to the second half of the 1100s.
