Håkans hytta

High up in the northern part of Rörö lies Håkan’s cabin, a place that has long aroused both curiosity and stories. According to tradition, it is associated with the Norwegian king Haakon IV Håkonsson, who reigned between 1217 and 1263.
Legend has it that the king anchored his fleet off Rörö during his voyages to Denmark, and that the island was used as a temporary resting place and for provisioning.
