During the archaeological excavations of the Town Square, we uncovered a little bronze buckle. The buckle had a decorative pattern of interwoven bands on it, which were symmetrical on either side of a midline. It turned out to be a pattern known as Borre style. The buckle is likely from the 10th century and the Viking Age. The design of the grates in the water stone and the surface water channels in the Town Square floor is inspired by the buckle, and by Borre style.

Borre style is a form of braiding, where the bands run over and under each other and are often held together by something that reminds one of a hand. We also decorated the tree grates on water stone with those same characteristic interlocking bands, which also have characteristics that can remind one of an animal, having eyes and horns.
