Treaty of Stettin
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Treaty of Stettin (Szczecin) brought the Northern Seven Years' War to an end on December 13, 1570. Sweden was forced to pay 150.000 riksdaler for the ransom of the fortress of Älvsborg and gained some territory in Estonia[citation needed]. The Kalmar Union was formally dissolved and the Danish king renounced all claims to the Swedish throne. Sweden acknowledged for the first time Skåne, Blekinge and Halland as Danish provinces. A treaty was also signed with Lübeck. Poland kept Courland, Muscovy captured Dorpat.
