Bohus

Bohus lies on the Göta älv in Västra Götaland County, Sweden, where the broad river connects Gothenburg with Lake Vänern. Part of Ale Municipality, the settlement occupies a well-connected stretch between Gothenburg and Kungälv, shaped by the waterway and rail routes running through the valley. Across the river in nearby Kungälv stands Bohus Fortress, a major medieval stronghold begun in 1308, when this area belonged to Norway. Its surviving walls recall centuries when this river district stood close to the former Norwegian-Swedish frontier.
