Battle in the Swedish War of Liberation

The Battle of Falun was the first battle of the Swedish War of Liberation that took place in Falun, Sweden, on February 5, 1521. Swedish rebels under Gustav Vasa, who had just days earlier been proclaimed leader of the Dalecarlians against the Danes, raided Falun. The rebels, consisting of a few hundred poorly armed peasants and some noble officers, took the Danish forces in the town completely by surprise.
