Gustavia, Rügen
Gustavia was a 19th-century unfinished Swedish town on the island of Rügen, the construction of which began and had to be aborted during the Napoleonic Wars.
==Background==
The Swedish Empire was involved in several wars, with Swedish Pomerania frequently turning into a battlefield. Not having a port on the isle of Rügen proved disadvantegeous in situations when access to nearby Stralsund was blocked by enemy forces on the mainland.〔Krüger, pp.2,3〕 In situations like that, Swedish landing forces often suffered casualties when they were deployed at Rügen's unsecured beaches.〔Krüger, p.3〕 Thus, in 1806 plans for a port city on Rügen's southeastern shore were drafted.〔Krüger, p.2〕 Furthermore, Sweden hoped to be able to easily block any naval access to Stralsund, Greifswald and Wolgast with a fortified port city on the Mönchgut peninsula.〔
This port was to be named after the contemporary Swedish monarch, Gustav IV Adolf,〔 who planned Gustavia not only as a naval base, but also as a trading town ("''köping''").〔Asmus〕
From July to August 1806, officers Boye and Gripenberg completed surveying the area around Groß and Klein Zicker, attesting that the nearby bay ''Zicker See'' would make a good harbor for three to four hundred vessels once the sand splits barring the inlet were dredged.〔 Boye also drafted first plans for the town.〔
