Hedehusene

Hedehusene is a town in Denmark located between Copenhagen and Roskilde. The town started its slow development in 1847, when the railway between Copenhagen and Roskilde was finished. The Hedehusene cemetery holds one of the oldest runestones found in Denmark: the Kalerup Stone, said to originate from the early Viking Age (circa 800 to 825). The towns population is estimated to be 11-12000 people.
