Title
Lurö church ruin
Description
Tradition claims that for a short period in the 12th century there was a monastery at Lurö in Vänern. The monks must have moved soon and finally established the monastery in Varnhem around 1150. Is there any truth behind the traditions? Since 1989, it has been known that the ruined hill on Lurö, which is connected with the tradition of a monastery, is the remains of a Romanesque stone church. New excavations carried out by the Värmlands Museum now mean that one has to ask the question whether the ruin was just a church or whether it could have been used for something else.
