Title

a furore Normannorum libera nos Domine

Description

Photo of the sentence "a furore Normannorum libera nos Domine" (from the fury of the Northmen deliver us, O Lord) found on the outer wall of the Kevin St Garda station in Dublin. This latin sentence is often associated with the Viking Age, but there is no contemporary source for it. Its popularity is such that the sentence has been used as title for some bands' albums, such as Crimson Sunset's metal demo in 1997 and Sabotage's 2016 punk album.
