The Runestone is PROOF of the Vikings living in the area long before Christopher Columbus. There are wonderful Viking and Native American historical items here. A must see for the region.

The Runestone Museum tells the local story of a stone that was left by a group of Norwegians in the 14th Century. It was discovered by a farmer near Kensington in 1898 and has been a subject of controversy ever since. The site where it was found is now a state park.
