The Russian Pillage (Swedish: rysshärjningarna), is the name for the action of the Imperial Russian Fleet toward the Swedish civilian population along the Swedish east coast, as well as expeditions and the raids of single unit in the inland, during the finishing years of the Great Northern War in 1719–1721. The purpose was to pillage, sack, and burn to force the Swedish regime to concessions during the peace negotiations on Åland. The Swedish representative, Georg Heinrich von Görtz, was at the time stalling the negotiations in hope of military support from Great Britain. Peter the Great, on the other hand, wished for a swift end to the war, which would make it possible for him to focus on inner reform.

  • Rysshärjningarna kallas ryska flottans terroraktiviteter mot svensk civilbefolkning längs svenska östersjökusten samt expeditioner och strövkårer inåt landet under de sista åren av stora nordiska kriget, 1719–1721. Avsikten var att tvinga svenska regeringen till eftergifter i fredsförhandlingarna på Åland. Sveriges representant Georg Heinrich von Görtz förhalade i förhoppning om militärt stöd från England. Peter den store eftersträvade ett slut på kriget för att i stället inrikta sig på att reformera Ryssland. (sv)

  • Die Russischen Verwüstungen (schwedisch rysshärjningarna) ist ein Name, der in der heutigen Zeit verwendet wird, um die Kriegsaktivitäten der russischen Flotte entlang der schwedischen Ostseeküste, während der Jahre 1719 bis 1721, zu beschreiben. Von diesen Streifzügen und Expeditionen in den letzten Jahren des Großen Nordischen Krieges, die zum Teil auch bis ins Landesinnere vordrangen, war insbesondere die schwedische Zivilbevölkerung betroffen. Das Ziel der Aktionen war, Schweden zu Zugeständnissen bei den Friedensverhandlungen auf Åland zu zwingen. Der schwedische Repräsentant Georg Heinrich von Görtz versuchte, diese Verhandlungen hinauszuzögern, weil Schweden auf das militärische Eingreifen Englands wartete. Erste Angriffe auf das schwedische Kernland fanden während der Russischen Flottenoperation im Bottnischen Meerbusen 1714 statt. Trotz hoher Schiffsverluste wurden die russischen Angriffe fortan kontinuierlich ausgeweitet. (de)

Peter the Great, on the other hand, wished for a swift end to the war, which would make it possible for him to focus on inner reform. In the summer of 1719 a Russian fleet consisting of 132 galleys and several smaller boats, totalling 26000 men, assaulted Stockholm archipelago. The Russian fleet pillaged along the coast of Uppland almost as far north as Gävle, and the coast of Södermanland as far south as Norrköping. The archipelago was severely devastated by the assaults. On several of the larger islands, almost all buildings were burnt down. The entire city of Trosa was burnt to the ground, save for the city church and bell tower. After receiving reinforcements, the Russian fleet attempted to attack Stockholm but were defeated on 12 August 1719. In 1720 Russian troops razed Umeå, and in 1721 the cities of Hudiksvall, Sundsvall, Söderhamn, Härnösand and Piteå. The Russian forces were stopped after a Swedish counterattack at the Battle of Grengam (Swedish: Slaget vid Ledsund) of which 43 of the total 61 galleons were destroyed. This resulted in the Swedish East Coast being saved. More similar encounters were repeated until the peace of Treaty of Nystad. (en)

Pietro il Grande, d'altra parte, desiderava una rapida fine della guerra, che gli avrebbe permesso di concentrarsi sulle riforme interne. Nell'estate del 1719, una flotta russa composta da 132 galee e diverse imbarcazioni più piccole, per un totale di 26000 uomini, assaltò l'arcipelago di Stoccolma. La flotta russa saccheggiò lungo la costa dell'Uppland quasi fino a nord di Gävle, e la costa del Södermanland fino a sud di Norrköping. L'arcipelago fu gravemente devastato dagli assalti. Su molte delle isole più grandi, quasi tutti gli edifici furono bruciati. L'intera città di Trosa fu rasa al suolo, salvo la chiesa cittadina e il campanile. Dopo aver ricevuto rinforzi, la flotta russa tentò di attaccare Stoccolma, ma fu sconfitta il 12 agosto 1719. Nel 1720, le truppe russe rasero al suolo Umeå, e nel 1721 le città di Hudiksvall, Sundsvall, Söderhamn, Härnösand e Piteå. Le forze russe furono fermate dopo un contrattacco svedese nella (in svedese: Slaget vid Ledsund) di cui 43 dei 61 galeoni totali furono distrutti. In questo modo la costa orientale svedese fu salvata. Altri scontri simili si ripeterono fino alla pace del Trattato di Nystad. (it)
