Lidö<br />

Stockholm – Lidö,<br />

SEK 110 one way.<br />

The history of Lidö stretches<br />

all the way back to<br />

the Middle Ages. Eventually,<br />

in 1630, “Resare-<br />

Bengt” Oxenstierna took over the island and built a large manor house<br />

here, which was destroyed by the Russians in 1719. Lidö Säteri was<br />

then built on the foundations of the old building. Today, it houses<br />

a renowned award-winning archipelago restaurant and inn. There is<br />

also a hostel and small cottages to rent.<br />

Further inland you will find Lidö Gård, a small-scale ecological<br />

farm. Apart from that, Lidö is largely unpopulated with some of the<br />

archipelago’s finest forests intact. The island is owned by The <strong>Archipelago</strong><br />

Foundation.<br />
