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.

5.00It gave good overview of Unesco protected landmarks and their stories, and overall history of the city. In general, I am noch much into military stuff, but this guide made all stories very human, engaging and interesting.
Terrific tour! Great quality and experience

5.00I became audio tour fan because of high-quality tors like this one. Terrific tour - very interesting stories, very easy to use (you just walk and recordings start playing automatically saying where to turn, where to look, and amazing stories). It was just right amount of info for my attention span told in simple human language without too many unnecessarily details. The big plus was that it told some of the greatest events related to marine history of Karlskrona and then ended by the Karlskrona Marine museum, where some of these boats are showcased!
