Käringberget

[2] The name contains käring in the meaning "sea mark, cairn for guidance for seafarers".

[3] The local tradition, however, states this interpretation of the name: "When all the men had been out on the lake and approached the home, they used to see the ladies standing on the mountain and looking for them.

"[2] In 1887, a cistern was built at Käringberget, manufactured at Lindholmen's workshop, which held 12,000 barrels of petroleum.

The cistern was filled directly from the tankers, owned by the Nobel companies, which arrived from Saint Petersburg.

[4] At Käringberget are the military base Gothenburg Garrison, the Maritime Rescue Coordination Centre and the Swedish Coast Guard's command center for the Southwest Region.
