The Naval Port of Karlskrona, a serial property situated on a Baltic Sea archipelago in south-eastern Sweden, is an extremely well-preserved example of a naval city from a time when major European powers secured their positions largely through war and battles at sea.
Founded in 1680 by King Karlxc2xa0XI and planned from the outset as a naval city, Karlskrona was built as a new base for the fleet of Sweden, a major power at that time.
The city was designed by Quartermaster General Erik Dahlbergh in a grid plan with Baroque features, and included the complete range of necessary functions: naval base facilities, military fortifications and defences, a shipyard, a civil city with trade and administration, supply areas, areas for provisions, and residential areas for groups from various levels of society.
The cityxe2x80x99s architects and planners were inspired by precedents such as the Venetian Arsenal, the French naval city of Rochefort, and the English city of Chatham.
In addition to the cityxe2x80x99s grid plan and built infrastructure, the serial property includes large parts of the island of Trossxc3xb6, where the naval base and many of its environments and buildings are located; a number of inner and outer fortifications that surround Trossxc3xb6, which were intended to defend the city and the naval base; as well as Skxc3xa4rfva Manor House and the Crown Mill at Lyckeby, satellites within this larger area that are representative of the hinterland.
While the city plan is preserved and the original vision for and planned functions of the city are still legible today, the majority of the property is part of a living urban environment facing continual pressures for change.
Sustaining the Outstanding Universal Value of the property over time will require further protecting its attributes and reformulating the present management plan to ensure that these attributes are managed appropriately in the context of the ongoing development of the city and the continual pressures for change that face this living urban environment.
