The Treaty of Jönköping was a peace agreement signed between Denmark–Norway and Sweden, which ended the Dano-Swedish War (1808–1809). It was mainly signed due to Swedish exhaustion after the loss of Finland to Russia in the Finnish War, and its leaders wanted to restore pre-war borders with Denmark–Norway.[1] The treaty was concluded on 10 October 1809.[2]

Stipulations

[edit]
  • Return to status quo between the two, with both sides returning occupied territory.[2][3][4]
  • Sweden is to keep British warships from its coast[2][5]
  • Defectors and prisoners from both sides are to be returned[2][3]
