About Lidingo
Lidingo is an island in the inner Stockholm archipelago, northeast of Stockholm, Sweden. In 2010, the population of the Lidingo urban area on the island was 31,561. It is the seat of government of the Lidingö Municipality, Stockholm County. Lidingo's qualities have attracted affluent residents such as Björn Ulvaeus and Agnetha Fältskog of ABBA. Exclusive regions include the coastal region between Mölna and the east tip of the island, Gashaga, as well as the east tip of the northern part of the horse shoe, called Elfvik. Notwithstanding the fact that many middle-class Swedes have moved to the island, due to rental apartment construction projects,
the municipality remains the third wealthiest in Sweden after Danderyd and Taby. Two runic inscriptions have been found on Lidingö. The latest, listed in Rundata as the Uppland Runic Inscription Fv1986 84, was found in 1984 under a 10 cm thick layer of soil and moss in an uninhabited region. The inscription is from the Viking age, around 800–1050 AD. The inscription has been translated as. Approximately 300 to 400 years after the carving of the runes, the inhabitants of Lidingo had established small farms. Lidingo is first mentioned in writing in 1328, in the will of Jedvard Filipsson, in the sentence curiam in Lydhingo meaning a Lidingo farm.
