(Fisherman’s wife= is the name that Karlskrona tourist website uses for this statue. )
Welcome to the heart of Carlskrona, this market place was my savior. Here I and other women made our living; we rowed in to this market place to sell our fish that we worked hard for.
In 1982 this statue called the fisherman’s wife was created by Eric Höglund to remind you of al the hard work we had to go thru to survive. Make sure that you also take a photograph here, because this is the most photographed statue in Carlskrona.
The market place is over 300 yeas and during my time it was more alive than it is now. This was not only a place where I soled fish, it was a place where all the groceries came in to Carlskrona.
Now in the 21th, this old marketplace is used for the archipelago traffic and a lot of small boats anchor here. The Archipelago has around ninety islands and Hasslö modern fishing culture has traces back to my time. Another island that is popular is Aspö where you can experience history or just enjoy the summer.
If you are interested in visiting one of the islands you can take one of the archipelago traffic boats or if you want more info about Carlskrona you can visit Blekinge Museum which is located…
Enjoy your day in Carlskrona it is a wonder full city and that is the reason why I am still here.
first draft on how my part of the script might look like.
