History

The island Fagerholm is located in the largest arhipelago in the world, situated between the Finnish mainland and the Kingdom of Sweden, in proximity to the autonomous region of Åland islands, a Swedish-speaking autonomous region within the Republic of Finland. In 1921, according to the decision of the League of Nations, the Åland Islands was established as a demilitarized zone, with an autonomous governance. We at the border to Åland Island take a special interest in securing a contingent of protectors, if ever needed.

Fagerholm island is a small island, but posess both typical nature of inner and outer archipelago. Selective industrial and defence executive teams have at the island a secluded place for board, executive and strategy meetings. On Fagerholm the main focus is on strategic reviews / long-term strategic thinking or key customer meetings.

The island have in the history been both in use as a customs station, frontal and coastal guard station, military radar and communication station, as well as have had several other functions within the Swedish Kingdom, Russian Empire and the Finnish Republic during the last 300 years. During the history, the island was several times used as a secluded place for meetings, - and base for fishing trips, by the countries leaderships.

Still in 1993 Finlands’s official passport controls were carried out at the island. Today, there is still a national weather station operating, so you can daily listen in the radio what kind of weather there is on the island or look at the specific forecast on Internet. The oldest house, the “White House” was built in stone in early 1700 and have undergone a renovation in the last years, so it again is again refelcting its historical statue.

Serena (living in UK) and Sandra Koivurinta (living in Australia) are today the main guardians of the island.
