Gräddö is a locality in Rådmansö parish in Norrtälje Municipality in Roslagen.
Gräddö was first mentioned in documents in 1547. [2]
In 1739, the Swedish troops intended to be deployed in the War of the Hats embarked from here. [3]
In August 1809, the Swedish expeditionary force sailed from Gräddö to Ratan in Västerbotten to stop the Russian army from invading. [3]
At the end of the 19th century, Gräddö became a popular tourist destination and a number of towered summer houses were built in the area. Several guest houses were also started, Sjömans, Söderbergs, Strands, Skogshyddan, Ida Bergströms and Björkö örn. Gräddö also got a hot bath house, which, however, was moved to Gräddö-Asken in 1920. In 1933 Gräddö mission house was moved to its current location, after having previously been built in 1868 at Nabbo.[ citation needed]
The shipyard at Gräddö was founded in 1924. The shipyard built exclusive motorboats until the 1960s. [3]
In 1959, Viking Line started ferry traffic from Gräddö to Mariehamn on Åland and on to Galtby, Korpo in Finland ( Åboland archipelago). The following year, the traffic was moved to Kapellskär as the departure port in Sweden. [3]
In 2015, Statistics Sweden demarcated an urban area named by Statistics Sweden as Nabbo, Gräddö and Rävsnäs. The settlement also includes the nearby towns of Rävsnäs and Nabbo. [4]
