The Franska Tomten (Swedish: French Plot) is a block located at the Packhusplatsen square in the Nordstaden central district of Gothenburg, Sweden.
History
The Franska Tomten was a plot of land located at the Port of Gothenburg that was controlled by the French government. A 1772 trade deal between the French and Swedish governments allowed the French to have trading rights at the Port of Gothenburg; in exchange, the Swedish were given ownership of the Caribbean island of Saint Barthélemy. The major economic activity in Saint Barthélemy was the trans-Atlantic slave trade. The Swedes continued to govern Saint Barthélemy as a hub of the Swedish slave trade until slavery was abolished in Sweden and its colonies in 1847. In 1878, the island was sold back to the French.[1]
