Life Behind the Walls It's no coincidence that Vaxholm Castle is located in the middle of the strait between Vaxholm and Rindö. It was one of the two straits through which larger ships could pass if they wanted to attack Stockholm. Gustav Vasa already recognized this, and in 1560, the first manned fortress was completed on Vaxholmen, the island where Vaxholm Castle is now located. It formed the foundation of Vaxholm Fortress, the fortifications that collectively defend the entrance to Stockholm. It also marked the beginning of Vaxholm as a municipality.
