In 1627, when the Bregninge runestone was first drawn and recorded, it was part of the churchyard wall, north of Bregninge church. Locals in Bregninge could tell that the rune stone originally stood on a hill near the church.
In 1652, a number of rune stones were to be sent to Copenhagen to protect them from destruction. From Lolland four stone were to be removed. Two of them still stand where they stood in 1652, while the stone from Tirsted  and the one from Bregninge was transported to Nysted. 
There they remained, for unknown reasons, until 1799. The Bregninge stone lay on the harbour square face-up. In years passing bye, it was used for various practical purposes like knocking on the dried fish. In 1815, it was sailed to Copenhagen and in 1817 set up at Trinity Church / Round Tower, where the Old-Northern Museum, which later became the National Museum, was housed. After 163 years, it finally reached its destination.
