About Finnhamn
Finnhamn is a village. Location: Österåker Municipality, Stockholm County. Elevation: 14 m.
Finnhamn is a natural harbour on the island of Stora Jolpan in the Stockholm archipelago. It is in Österåker Municipality and lies to the east of Ingmarsö and to the west of Husarö. The name Finnhamn is derived from the Finnish boats which called into the harbour on their way to and from Stockholm, and is often now used for the island as well as the harbour. Finnhamn was bought by Stockholm City in 1943. A wealthy coal merchant built a house here in 1915 and this is now a youth hostel which is open all year round.
