Mörrumsån is one of the most famous rivers for salmon fishing in Sweden and the coastal region is well known for its pike fishing. Salmon fishing in Mörrum was for many years a highly lucrative commercial business owned by the State. The earliest documented evidence of this dates back to the early 13th century. These days, there is no commercial fishing in Mörrumsån but sport fishing is ever so popular. At Laxens Hus (the Salmon House) by Kungsforsen in Mörrum you can learn more about the species found in the river, including the salmon of course. The exhibition includes a large aquarium and you can even see the fish in their natural habitat through a window facing the river. More information under Places to Eat.
