A reunification stone is - as the name says - a stone that should remind us of the Reunification in 1920. The defeat in 1864 was still strong in the Danes' consciousness at the Reunification in 1920. Therefore came the result of the vote on 10 February 1920 and the subsequent reunification of Southern Jutland. with the rest of Denmark to stand as the joyous fulfillment of an old dream.

The joy and gratitude manifested itself in popularly marking the event. The result was that many memorial stones were erected throughout Denmark, and in many cases it was the old veterans from 1864 who revealed the stones.

The most famous reunion stones are the memorial stones erected in places where King Christian X mounted the white horse, completed his historic ride on July 10, participated in the reunion party at Dybbøl Banke on July 11 and met the disappointed Danes in Kruså on July 12.
