Anecdote
He was one of the sons of Harald Fairhair, the first king of Norway, and was the king of Vestfold. He was the great-grandfather of Olaf II of Norway, through his son Gudrød Bjørnsson.
When his father, Harald Fairhair, died, his kingdom was divided up between his sons. Bjørn became the king of Vestfold, a Norwegian county west of the Oslofjord, and is considered as the founder of Tønsberg, Vestfold.
Bjørn was killed by his brother Eirik Bloodaxe in a feud, around 927 CE. He is said to be buried in the big Farmann burial mound (Farmannshaugen), outside Tønsberg, in Sem, close to the manor of the Jarlsberg family.
