Karlskrona isn’t just another coastal city, it’s a completely planned naval fortress from the 1680s. It’s so perfectly preserved that UNESCO named it a World Heritage Site. On this self-guided audio tour, you’ll discover how a Swedish king transformed a farmer’s fields into one of Europe’s most powerful naval bases, and hear the stories of the farmers, soldiers, and royals who shaped this unique maritime city.

The tour starts at Hoglands Park, where farmer Vitus Andersson once owned all this land before King Karl XI seized it to build his new naval city. You’ll cross onto Stumholmen Island, once a strictly forbidden military zone, and explore the heart of naval operations. There, you’ll find the clothing workshop with oversized windows for tailors, and the barracks designed like a ship’s interior where 500 sailors slept in hammocks. The tour ends at the Karlskrona Naval Museum, where the historic ship Jarramas launched in 1900 to train young naval cadets.

Cần Quan Tâm

Stand at the centre of one of Europe's largest squares, a vast open space framed by baroque architecture and designed for military parades. Walk its full width to feel the scale of King Karl XI's ambition, built to impress and intimidate in equal measure.

Fredrikskyrkan

Marvel at this towering baroque church that anchors the eastern end of Stortorget, its paired towers rising above the rooftops of the city. Step closer to appreciate the craftsmanship that naval-era Sweden poured into its spiritual landmarks alongside its warships.
