Three important years of peace for the Bothnian Bay coast: 1323, 1720, 1809.

The story is about what it has been like to live in one of the oldest coastal settlements in the Gulf of Bothnia in historical times, with three important peace treaties and the parliamentarians from Skinnarbyn in Bygdeå parish, who contributed to the abolition of the autocratic royal power on June 6, 1809.

The story takes its facts from the book: "Skinnarbyn och Bygdeå, händelser från forntid till nutid" by Torgny Åberg, 2023.
