Former fish market in Karlskrona

Fisktorget, located right by the water, once served as a fish and vegetable market in Karlskrona. Today the square, within sight of the old constable Grevagården with the Blekinge Museum, is the hub for the numerous boat trips to the islands in the Karlskrona archipelago.

The Fisktorget was used as a market place for over 300 years. Initially, it was the Wachtmeister family who sold agricultural products on the jetty of their palace. Over time, this developed into a flourishing market trade in fish and all kinds of other goods. In the first half of the 20th century, there was even a market hall on the Fisktorget.
