Sottunga has served as a seafaring island community in the Åland archipelago since the 16th century. Set in the Baltic Sea between Finland and Sweden, the municipality consists of inhabited islands, smaller skerries and narrow channels, with sea routes central to everyday movement. It belongs to autonomous, Swedish-speaking Åland and is Finland’s smallest municipality by population. The wooden Church of St Anne, built in 1728, remains a tangible link to the parish’s Lutheran tradition.
