At the corner of Adelgatan - Kansligatan, a stone marks the center of Malmö. The stone is from 1676 and is a so-called milestone.

You can see that the stone has been broken at one point, but has been put back together and placed up along the wall and on a slightly newer stone.
In the middle of the stone is King Carl XI's monogram.

Text on sign:
