Battle of Grengam
The Battle of Grengam ((ロシア語:Гренгамское морское сражение), (スウェーデン語:Slaget vid Ledsund, or Slaget vid Föglöfjärden).〔 (Nordisk familjebok, Volume 15, Column 1502, Ledsund )〕 ) of 1720 was the last major naval battle in the Great Northern War that took place in the Åland Islands, in the Ledsund strait between the island communities of Föglö and Lemland. The battle marked the end of Russian and Swedish offensive naval operations in Baltic waters. The Russian fleet conducted one more raid on the Swedish coast in spring 1721, whereupon the Treaty of Nystad was signed, ending the war.〔p.244, Wilson, Callo〕
== Location of the battle ==
The main shipping route between the ports of Stockholm in Sweden and Turku in Finland passes through the Åland Islands. It enters the Ledsund strait from south-west with Föglö on the south-east side and Lemland on the north-west.〔(Välkommen till Föglö ) 〕 An anchorage () of the shore of Flisö in Föglö is protected from the prevailing south-westerly winds by two small islands. This anchorage was previously called ''Granhamn'', Swedish for 'Spruce harbor'. On modern maps it is marked as ''Rödskärs flädan'' after the larger of the two protecting islands.〔 (Inventering av fornlämningar och kulturmiljöer på Granhamnsholmen och Rödskär i Bråttö, Ålands landskapsregering, 2006 )〕 The smaller island is now called ''Granhamns holmen'' or Granhamn's island. It should not be confused with the island also named ''Granhamn'' in the Stockholm archipelago.
