Geocache Description:




Vissefjärda socken var förr ett viktigt gränsområde i handeln med Danmark. Det var här den så kallade "Dackefejden" utspelades 1543. Fejden som leddes av Nils Dacke berodde på stort missnöje mot kung Gustav Vasa. Nils Dacke var född i byn Hult i Vissefjärda socken. Dackestenen står intill Vissefjärda kyrka och är en symbol för "Dackefejden". Stenen kommer från Nils Dackes gård i Södra Lindön. På stenen återfinns en armborst som symboliskt pekar mot Stockholm.
