Säffle Municipality

Säffle Municipality extends across 2,497 square kilometers, containing both land and water areas along the shores of Lake Vänern in western Sweden.

The municipality received its final structure in 1971 when the city of Säffle merged with nearby rural districts to form the current administrative region.

The municipality maintains multiple museums and art centers that present exhibitions about local traditions, while hosting summer festivals throughout its territory.

The region connects to major cities through regular bus services, with the Ekenäs harbor providing boat transportation to nearby islands including Lurö.

The Millesvik Archipelago within the municipality contains ancient runestones and historical monuments that date back to early Nordic settlements.
