You're standing at Sverd i fjell, which roughly means swords in the rock. This is the Hafrsfjord neighbourhood of Madla, part of the city of Stavanger. Take a look at those three huge bronze swords. They stand on a small hill right next to the water, their blades driven deep into the rock. They're around ten metres tall. Walk up close and you'll really feel the scale.
