From the museum Hamn; "On August 13, 1719, Swedish and Russian troops fought in the Battle of Stäket during the Great Nordic War. The Swedes described the battle as a Swedish victory – while the Russians pronounced themselves as victors. Thanks to archaeological excavations and new studies of archival material, a different interpretation of the battle has been brought to light."
