==Sights== [[File:Jarlabankes bro,Täby 4,1.jpg|thumb|upright| Runestone at Jarlabankes bro]] *[[Runestone]]s: There are 37 identified runestones in Täby. Their inscriptions have provided many interesting and useful insights into the life and destinies of the people of the [[Viking Age]]. Judging from the inscriptions of the runestones and legends, the most important man at that time was Jarlabanke Ingefastsson (ca. 1000). He has given name to the remains of the Viking era causeway known as Jarlabankes bro.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://sok.riksarkivet.se/sbl/Presentation.aspx?id=12057|title= Jarlabanke Ingefastsson|author= Hans Gillingstam |publisher= Svenskt biografiskt lexikon |access-date=1 December 2018}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.runriket.se/wp/r.php/besoksmal/jarlabankes-bro/|title= Jarlabankes bro|publisher=runriket.s|access-date=1 December 2018}}</ref> *Näsby Manor: Originally built in the 1660s and designed by [[Nicodemus Tessin the Elder]], Näsby Manor is located in the picturesque and natural setting of Näsbyviken shore. The manor was burned to the ground in 1897, but was rebuilt according to the original design on the initiative of Carl Robert and Dora Lamm who moved into the manor in 1905. Parts of the old manor garden still exist and are being well preserved. *[[Taby Racecourse]]: Sweden's largest [[horse racing]] track, inaugurated in 1960. *[[Täby kyrka|Täby Church]]: Built in the 13th century. It houses a [[triptych]] from the 15th century. The most notable objects are the wall paintings from the [[Middle Ages|medieval]] times, painted by [[Albertus Pictor]]. One of them, ''[[Death playing chess]]'', portrays a man playing [[chess]] with the [[Grim Reaper]] and was the inspiration for the movie director [[Ingmar Bergman]] when he made the perhaps best known Swedish movie ever, ''[[The Seventh Seal]]''. *[[File:Taby Centrum 170107.jpg|thumb|Taby Centrum]][[Täby Centrum]]: One of Sweden's largest shopping malls.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.tabycentrum.se/|title=Täby Centrum|website=tabycentrum.se}}</ref>
