The Ulen Sword is a purported Viking sword found in a field miles west of Ulen, Minnesota, where it is currently on display in the Ulen Historical Museum. However, it bears no resemblance to any sword of known early Medieval provenance and is almost certainly a 19th-century French military sword. The sword was found buried underground by Hans O. Hansen on his farm on April 20, 1911. Because of drought, Hansen decided to set his plow blades much deeper than usual, and unearthed the artifact.
