Situated in Stockholm, between Lidingö and Nacka, this is a fabulous place with royal history, inhabited since the 1600s and enjoyed by Stockholm's high society for centuries. Your own private island in the middle of the action but protected from wind, erosion and being overlooked. The island is indescribably beautiful and exciting buildings and varied locations make a magical feeling arise, a serenity that is hard to describe. Common to all visitors is that once you step ashore, nobody is in a hurry to leave this fairytale island. This is a place where people of all ages can both relax and have fun around the clock, in both sunrise and sunset.
Danmarks Holme is not only unique in terms of location and nature but also in it's ability to accommodate large families and groups, for everyday life or special occasions. This is unusual because in Stockholm you generally are not allowed to build within 300 m of the shoreline (rule called "strandskydd"). For Danmarks Holme this is not a problem, as it has been inhabited since the 1600s, there are already many buildings around the island and it is therefore not affected by the "strandskydd". The area closest to the island on Nacka's mainland is protected by "strandskydd" and a large adjacent area is a nature reserve - no disturbing buildings can be built. The island's mooring docks are located in the calm water against the Nacka side and there are three accompanying boat and car parking spaces a stone throw away at Telegrafbergets small marina.
No one really knows how Danmarks Holme got its name, but there are many myths surrounding it. The most publicized and the most likely explanation, however, is the one of when the Danish fleet besieged the island during the Swedish Independence War between Denmark's king Christian the Tyrant and Sweden's king Gustav Vasa in the 1520s. After this the island was named "Dansken" ("The Dane") which later became Danmarks Holme (The island of Denmark). The neighbor island was named Sveriges Holme (The island of Sweden) and it was there that the peace negotiations between Denmark and Sweden were held. Through the centuries the island has housed a bakery, has been the place where the Stockholm high society went for champagne breakfasts as well as croquet tournaments and has been home to "the old lady on The island of Denmark" which is said to have been one of the oldest people in Europe at her death in 1836, 108 years old.
The tide of history is clearly noticed when wandering around on Danmarks Holme. Stone lined paths trampled by hundreds of feet and hooves winds on the island. Several hundred years ago huge stones were placed and trees planted around the shoreline to preserve the island's beautiful beaches and to prevent erosion. The island's own cape, Kärleksudden (The cape of love), offers amazing sunsets and along the southwestern shore there are large open grassy areas for games and play. The whole island is like a large park and to the help during the summer, the current owners has kept sheep on the island, to keep grass and vegetation in good shape.
