In Sweden, one oracular method was a ritual known as year walk, and those who ventured on this perilous journey were known as year walkers. Success meant that the omen-seeker could acquire knowledge of the following year; it was a ritual that sought answers regarding the unbearable uncertainty of being. Year walk (or annual walk) is known in Swedish as årsgång, with regional and lexical variations: ådergång, julagång, ödegång, adergång, dödsgång, sjukyrkegång, and so on. Although the term årsgång has a southern Swedish pattern of distribution (Götaland), similar practices, as well as the same motifs in different types of folk legends, are common and can be found throughout the Nordic countries.

  • Boatsmen in Blekinge
    Boatsmen in Blekinge All pictures by Fredrik Franke These pages are about the boatsman in Blekinge, his family and his life. Since way, way back in time people and countries have been at war with each other. Finding soldiers willing to fight was not easy and the authorities solved the problems in different ways. They could for instance decide that for every 10th man in the village one had to be a soldier. Most of them were forced to against their will. The chance to come home from war was slight. During the reign of King Carl XI a new system was brought in in Sweden. The soldier was employed. He got a small dwelling, clothes and a salary that was paid by the farmers in the village. The group of farms employing one soldier was called a "rote" (division). The number of farms in a "rote" varied depending on how big the farms were. Blekinge became Swedish at the Peace of Roskilde in Denmark in 1658. Before that Blekinge was a Danish province. Quite soon after the Peace the Swedes built the towns of Karshamn and Karlskrona. Karlskrona became the naval head quarters for all of Sweden. Lots of people were needed to populate the new town, for the navy and the ship yard. To make it easier to find workers and seamen it was decided during the 1680´s that Blekinge and Södra Möre in the neighbouring county of Småland were to be divided into boatsmens companies. Since so many boatsmen were needed the system here got different to that of the rest of Sweden.

    BLEKINGE Underbara vatten / Outdoor / Konst / Upptäckter / Smaker Upptäck Blekinge Blekinge är fyllt av upplevelser, från storslagna stadsfestivaler till det lilla galleriet i ett fiskeläge någonstans. Här är ett axplock av platser som du inte får missa! Blekinges vykort Brändaholm är Blekinges mest fotograferade och populära holme. En sommaridyll i Karlskrona med sina 45 små röda stugor med vita knutar, inte större än 32 kvadratmeter i boyta. Motivet förekommer ofta på vykort från Sverige just för att stugorna ger en sådan skön kontrast till det blå havet utanför. Brändaholm upplever du smidigast på cykel som finns att hyra Sölvesborgsbron inne i Karlskrona city. – en internationell kändis Sölveborgsbron är speciell att vara på, den binder samman Sölvesborgs stadskärna och gästhamn med golfbana och strand. Utsedd till en av världens tio mest spektakulära broar enligt CNN, just för sin utformning och ljussättning. Sölvesborgsbron är dessutom Europas längsta gång- och cykelbro med sittplatser utplacerade för picknick med fina vyer. Här kan nykära stanna för en romantisk paus på “pusshållplatserna”. Parkering finns på båda sidorna av bron. En kulturskatt Ronneby har en vacker Brunnspark men också en kulturskatt – Bergslagen. Det är en genuin stadsdel med bebyggelse och gatustruktur som härstammar från medeltiden. Här kan du strosa i kulturhistoriska miljöer längs smala vindlande gränder bakom Heliga Kors kyrka med sin stora samling renässanskonst. Dessutom finns det ett hembygdsmuseum och konst- utställningar på Ronneby Kulturcentrum i området.
