Guided tour - Kungsholms Fortress
Together with Drottningskär on Aspö, Kungsholms Fort has guarded the entrance to Karlskrona for more than 300 years.
Kungsholms Fort is still in use as part of the Swedish defense. The unique round harbor has become a symbol of Karlskrona’s World Heritage status. Exotic plants from all corners of the world thrive behind the fort’s protective walls, having been brought here over the ages by the navy’s long-distance vessels. The island also hosts a museum that reflects the fort’s history.
