Treaty of Jönköping

Peace Treaty between Denmark-Norway and Sweden

The Treaty of Jönköping was a peace agreement signed between Denmark–Norway and Sweden, which ended the Dano-Swedish War (1808-1809). It was mainly signed due to Swedish exhaustion after the loss of Finland to Russia in the Finnish War, and its leaders wanted to restore pre-war borders with Denmark–Norway.[1] The treaty was concluded on 10 October 1809.[2]
