In 2023, Gothenburg celebrates 400 years and the New Älvsborg Fortress has since 1677 protected Gothenburg from several attacks from the Danes. There are even old cannonballs left in the stone walls of the fortress. Perhaps you have heard of Tordenskiöld active in the Danish Royal Navy, who in 1719 came with his troop to capture both Nya Älvsborg Fortress and Nya Varvet. For those of you visiting Gothenburg's Jubileumsfestival 2-5 June 2023, you can visit Tordenskiold's village, which takes you back to the 18th century and a little more peaceful Danes. :-)
