NYKOPING

This article appears in Volume V19, Page 930 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: NUM-ORC
NYKOPING , a seaport of Sweden,
chief
  town of the
district
  (ran) of Sodermanland, 98 m. S.W. of Stockholm by a branch from the Stockholm-Malmo railway. Pop. (1900) 7375. It lies at the head of the By-fjord, an inlet of the Baltic. The ruins of its once famous castle, the town
hall
  (1662), and the
district
 
governor
 's residence, are notable buildings. The port, together with that of Oxelosund (ro m. S.E.) at the mouth of the bay, which is seldom closed in winter, exports iron and zinc ere, timber,
wood
 -pulp and oats.
NykSping (i.e. New-Market, Latinized as Nicopia) begins to appear as a town early. in the 13th century. Its castle was the seat of the kings of Sodermanland, and after those of Stockholm and Kalmar was the strongest in Sweden. The death of Waldemar in 1293, the starving to death of Dukes Waldemar and Eric in 1318, the
marriage
  and the deaths both of Charles IX. and his consort Christina of Holstein, the
birth
  of their daughter Princess Catherine and in 1622 the
birth
  of her son Charles X. are the main incidents of which it was the scene. Burned down in 1665 and again damaged by fire in 1719, it still remained the seat of the provincial authorities till 176o. The town was burned by Albert of Mecklenburg's party in 1389, by an accidental conflagration in 1665, and by the Russians in 1719.
