steamboat blidösund
A rich cultural heritage from 1911
Stepping aboard the Blidösund steamer is like traveling back to a time when steam revolutionized transportation and laid the foundation for our modern society.
Today, we strive for sustainable and fossil-free maritime transport, but historic steamships still have a relevant place today.
Blidösund, built in 1911, is one of the few remaining coal-fired steamboats still operating in the Stockholm archipelago. Blidösund is like a floating museum that reflects the history of the Stockholm archipelago, where visitors can experience the historical power and contemporary use of steam. Traditional working methods and machines are still used today, just like in 1911. By preserving and exploring the steamboat, we protect an important cultural heritage and gain an understanding of the development that shaped our society.
