Lighthouses...and more lighthouses!
This is an 1868 Royal Swedish Nautical Chart Archive nautical chart or maritime map of the Bothnian Sea, or Bottenhavet in Swedish. The Bothnian Sea is a body of water situated between Sweden and Finland, part of the larger Gulf of Bothnia. Depicting from Gadden south to Lulla, both coastlines are illustrated in detail. Coastal islands are illustrated and labeled. Countless depth soundings, coastal lights, and other navigation aids are highlighted. Many of these lighthouses are illustrated in profile along the Swedish and Finnish coastlines - useful for helping the mariner to recognize them and thus know his location.Publication History and Census
