Leonhard Fredrik Rääf


Leonhard Fredrik Rääf also known as Ydredrotten was a Swedish folklorist, local historian and conservative politician from Ydre. During a time Rääf had a literary salon in Tomestorp which was frequented by among others Per Daniel Amadeus Atterbom. In 1843 Rääf moved to a farm in Forsnäs where he lived until his death in 1872.
Rääf is buried together with some possessions in a Viking-style mound at the shores of Lägern.
