This runestone dates back to the 11th century. During a brief period from the 1000s to the 1100s, an unusually large number of runestones were erected in the Nordic region.
The carved runic inscription

reads "ANUND AND TORGILS HAD THE STONE RAISED AFTER ASGÖT."
Antiquarian Richard Dybeck (1811-1865) wrote that he discovered this runestone in 1855 between Brunnsviken and Karlberg, near the now demolished toll booth on the Stenbrottet area by Karlbergsvägen. Many runestones were moved at the turn of the 20th century in connection with construction of new roads, railways and buildings. This is probably why this particular runestone disappeared for some years and then was rediscovered in 1921 near a garbage dump on Solnavägen. The stone was lying on its side and partially covered by soil. In 1922, the stone was placed here, in the Karlberg Park.
