After Jämtland became part of Sweden in the Peace of Brömsebro in 1645, the Swedish Queen Christina had a redoubt built at this point. The plan was for a town to be built here, which would then have been the first town in this part of Sweden. The plan failed due to revolts. Only in the 18th century did Jämtland become a city with Östersund.
