"Kongegravene i Ringsted Kirke" (The Royal Tombs in Ringsted Church) is an 1858 lithograph by Danish artist Heinrich Hansen. This illustration, Planche X, details the skeletal remains discovered in the church's royal tombs. The image captures the discovery of a Viking era burial, showcasing the remains in their original positions within the tomb. Hansen's detailed depiction of the skeletal structure contributes to our understanding of Viking burial practices and the history of the Ringsted Church. This lithograph, now held at the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, remains an important document in the study of Danish archaeology.
