The Scanian history in a nutshell
The Insurrection
|
 |
1811
In the massacre of Klågerup, on June 15 1811, 800 Scanian
farmers rose with pitchforks against Swedish canons. There was no
pardon given on this event, which has never been mentioned in Scanian
history books. The cause of the revolt was a combination of
social grievances and Scanian freedom seeking factors.
