![Gold Star Critiquer/Gold Star Workshop Editor/Gold Note Writer [C: 647 W: 152 N: 815]](http://i1.trekearth.com/misc/g-g-g.gif) (2314) | We were walking along the Baltic coast in Oxelosund, in the region of Nyköping, when we saw this edifice. I wondered if it was some kind of cairn, these megalithic mounds. After walking around it, we did find out what it was; but I am suggesting a GUESSING GAME. What is it according to you?
The Swedish members will probably know, so if they could let the others try first; thank you!
Notice the white mark just under the yellow rocks. This is common all along the Baltic sea; it seems it's caused by the saltpetre in the water in this area. At least, we think it's the reason. If anybody could confirm this, I would be grateful.
In WS, I will add a few photos showing these white marks all along the coast.
22-05-08: GAME OVER! Thank you for taking part in this game! It's not as romantic as one would like: it's an army storing place for military equipment, of recent building! We could see it as we walked round to the other side: There were notices, the door was open but obstructed by an army canvas.
All the same, we couldn't but admire the work of art and camouflage. The building blends so well in the scenery, and as many of you agreed , it looks like a megalithic monument. |

| I am adding this photo, because Evanrizo thought that maybe a closer shot might be better. My husband took that one, so of course with me on it, I couldn't send it as a main posting. |
