contents Spectropolarimetic campaigns have established that large-scale magnetic fields are present at the surfaces of approximately 10% of massive dwarf stars. However, there is a dearth of magnetic field measurements for their deep interiors. Asteroseismology of gravity-mode pulsations combined with rotating magneto-hydrodynamical calculations of the early-B main-sequence star HD 43317 constrain its magnetic field strength to be approximately $5\times10^{5}$ G just outside its convective core. This proof-of-concept study for magneto-asteroseismology opens a new window into the observational characterisation of magnetic fields inside massive stars.
