1566 explosion in Bohus

The Bohus Bang, as it is traditionally called in Swedish historiography, was a devastating explosion which occurred at Bohus Fortress in March 1566, during an assault by Swedish forces. The explosion was deliberately triggered by the fortress's Danish-Norwegian defenders in order to destroy the so-called 'Red Tower', which had been captured by the Swedes.
