Stora Förö

Stora Förö is a small island in the Southern Gothenburg Archipelago of western Sweden, which belongs to the Delfin summer home society. The first summer cottages were built here in the 1930s. The name Förö comes from times when the island was covered in pine trees.

Stora Förö was also subject to “The Norwegian Invasion” which is described as a significant event in the history of Stora Förö and the Gothenburg Archipelago as a whole. In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, a large number of wealthy Norwegians purchased summer homes and villas on the islands, including Stora Förö, leading to the phenomenon being referred to as the "Norwegian Invasion".

The reason for the influx of Norwegians was the availability of properties at low prices. At the time, many island residents were eager to sell their properties, and they offered them for as little as three Norwegian kroner. This created a unique opportunity for wealthy Norwegians to purchase attractive and spacious properties in a scenic and attractive location.

The Norwegian Invasion had a significant impact on the Gothenburg Archipelago, including Stora Förö. The new residents brought with them new ideas, styles, and tastes, and they helped to establish the archipelago as a popular tourist destination. Many of the summer homes and villas that were purchased during this time still stand today and are an important part of the cultural heritage of the Gothenburg Archipelago.

In addition to the cultural impact, the Norwegian Invasion also had an economic impact on the region. The influx of new residents and tourists brought new wealth to the area, and this helped to spur growth and development. Today, Stora Förö and the Gothenburg Archipelago continue to be popular destinations for tourists and second-home owners, and the legacy of the Norwegian Invasion continues to be felt in the area.

In 1952, it was the site of a significant historical event, commonly referred to as "Förölution." The Föröians, the residents of the island, rebelled against Swedish rule due to increased living prices following the post-World War II economic boom. The revolution took on a communist ideology and was supported by the Soviet Union, which provided weapons and funds.

During the course of the revolution, the Föröians accomplished a significant victory by burning down a critical harbor in Gothenburg, which resulted in substantial economic damage to Sweden. However, the Swedish government quickly retaliated with force, and the revolution was ultimately quashed after only four weeks.

Despite its short-lived nature, the Förölution became a symbol of resistance and the fight for self-determination. The Föröians, through their struggle and sacrifice, became an inspiration to generations to come. Their spirit of resistance has continued to inspire those who yearn for freedom and independence. The event will always be remembered in the annals of history as a testament to the human desire for sovereignty and self-determination.
