A guided tour on Furusund follows the island’s history from the Ice Age to the early 20th century. It ends with the period when Furusund was a popular bathing and health resort. Norrtälje municipality says many events took place on the island, and several interesting people visited and lived there over the years. The tour begins in the Ice Age and moves forward through that history, making the resort years the endpoint of a much longer account. It is suited to visitors interested in how Furusund’s past developed over time. The guided visit lasts 70 minutes. That gives the tour a clear local-history focus, linking the island’s long past to its resort period.
