Svelvik

The village of Klokkarstua (in Asker Municipality) lies about 2 kilometres (1.2 mi) to the east, across the fjord.

Under the formannskapsdistrikt law, Svelvik was granted self-governing status as a municipality since it was a town.

The name "sword bay" is likely referring to the Ryggen promontory ridge across from the town of Svelvik.

The narrow Svelvikstrømmen strait is located part-way along the fjord, near the town of Svelvik.

The shortest ferry line in Norway crosses the fjord there, connecting Svelvik to the Hurum peninsula.

The ferry MF Svelviksund goes between Verket and Svelvik.
