- 31 March - The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences is given its rules.
- 15 May - Carl Linnaeus travel to Öland.
- 28 July - Russo-Swedish War (1741–43)
- 23 August - Battle of Villmanstrand
- The punishment of Uppenbar kyrkoplikt (Public Church Duty), a form of public humiliation were criminals are pilloried by being placed on a stool during sermon and repent their criminal act, are abolished for sexual crimes, such as having sex outside marriage, in order to spare unmarried mothers the social stigma which are viewed as a contributing factor of infanticide.

- The guild membership requirement for innkeepers are dropped. This makes the profession considerably more accessible for women and makes it one of the most common for women. [2]
- Carl Linnaeus is ennobled.
- Uppsala Astronomical Observatory is inaugurated.
- Et ankommit bref om såningsmachinen under namn af Lotta Triven by Charlotta Frölich (who thereby becomes the first woman to be published by the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences). [3]
