Broborg is one of Uppland's most magnificent ancient strongholds, strategically placed on a ridge along the former seaway, the "highway" of its day, that led Vikings to Old Uppsala and the Baltic Sea. The visible walls of the stronghold tell its history and the many sagas associated with the site capture our imagination. One such saga is about Grimsa, the daughter of a powerful Viking chieftain who lies buried in a mound near the stronghold.
