Rudlå Petroglyphs

Rudlåparken in Stavanger is located between Kampen and Gamle Stavanger. In the park there is a small site with petroglyphs, estimated to be dating from around 1000 BCE in the Nordic Bronze Age.
The petroglyphs here used to be painted red for visibility, but they haven’t been painted in a while and can be somewhat difficult to see. Especially because there also have been a lot of graffiti at the site since it was rediscovered in the 1920s.
