Geocache Description:

free counters En elakt placerad filmburk a nasty placed film canister

17 augustus anno 1676 stod slaget vid Fyllebro.

Detta slag var vändpunkten för svenskarna i det Svensk Danska kriget 1676 – 1679.

I detta slag stupade omkring 1500 danska soldater och 100 svenska

1562 danskar tillfångatogs också här.

På platsen för slaget finns i dag Maria kyrkan.

Denna cache är placerad vid en minnessten över Lutzow som ensam dräpte sjutton svenskar.

Denna plats kallades den benlöses grav av de som bodde på gården som en gång fanns här.

Enligt legenden fortsatte Lutzow slåss efter att ha fått båda benen avskjutna.

Intressant är att Svenskar reste denna sten över en tysk legosoldat som stupat i dansk tjänst.

 

17 august year 1676 was a great battle in Fyllebro

This battle was the turning point in the war between Sweden & Denmark 1676 – 1679

1500 Danes and 100 Swedes was killed here

Also was 1562 Danes prisoners of war

On the former battle ground is today a church..

This cache is placed near a memory stone over Lutzow that alone killed 17 Swedes.

The farmers that lived here in the late sixties called this place the legless mans tomb

According to the legend kept Lutzow on fighting after both his legs was shot of

Interesting is the fact that Swedes erected this stone to a memory over a German mercenary in Danish service
