Svinesund

Svinesund is best known in Västra Götaland County for its major Swedish–Norwegian border crossing over the Svinesund strait. This narrow waterway forms part of the boundary between the two countries and leads south toward the Skagerrak. The Svinesund Bridge, opened in 2005, carries the E6 route between Sweden and Norway, while the older Svinesund Bridge, inaugurated in 1946, remains a prominent crossing beside it. The area has long been shaped by trade, travel and border formalities, linking the Swedish coast around Strömstad with Norway’s Østfold region.
