The city was established as a naval base in 1680, during the reign of King Karl XI, after whom the town is named (Karlskrona: Karl's Crown). The town continues to host a naval base and is the largest city in the county of Blekinge.

The town centre lies 5 km south from the mainland on the island Trosso. The old shipyard, the naval base's oldest constructions and the three churches located on Trosso are listed on the UNESCO World Heritage list.

There are lots of great places around the archipelego to go swimming on a summer day. Try the 'beach' near the Maritime Museum on Stumholmen with its diving board or the more natural equivalents on Dragso.

Wink Travel Guides introduce you to the best world travel destinations, in a clear and concise way, illustrated by photos.
