Muskö

Muskö is located  between Horsfjärden to the north and Mysingen to the south. Muskö is really a cluster of smaller islands that have merged into one big island over time and thanks to land rise. The many coves and bays offer a nearness to the water and an impression that the the island is smaller than it really is. Muskö is rather rocky. Between the rocks and mountains there are valleys and even clayfields.

The oldest find is from the stone age when Muskö was a group of islets and skerries. On an islet somebody left an ax! This indicates that our forefathers courageously paddled their canoes far out in the archipelago.
But it was not until the Vikings that this part of the archipelago saw its first permanent dwellers. This can be determined from house grounds and burial grounds that have been dated to that time.
In the beginning of the dark ages Muskö belonged to Häringe, a royal estate. Its last King was Magnus Ladulås, who in 1278 donated Muskö to the bishop in Strängnäs. In the 16th century ownership was returned to the state.

The better part of Muskö was purchased by Adolf Levin in 1769. He built the mansions at Arbottna and Ludvigsberg in Skarpa village.
