Stenungsund
Stenungsund (Swedish pronunciation: [stɛnɵŋˈsɵnːd]) is a locality and the seat of Stenungsund Municipality, Västra Götaland County, Sweden with 23,429 inhabitants in 2023.
Stenungsund was once only an idyllic bathing and vacation location on the Swedish west coast. A landmark is the Tjörn Bridge, a bridge to the island Tjörn. Stenungsund is also home to several industries and business, with a total of 2000 registered businesses.
The annual long-distance sailing competition Tjörn Runt starts in Stenungsund.
Archaeological excavations in Stenungsund in 2006 discovered a site of Iron Age burials (1st - 3rd century AD), notable for the unusual presence of Roman ceramic artifacts.
The name Stenungsund comes from the village stenunge that was located where central Stenungsund now exists. Historians believe the name meant "the village at the foot of the mountain." The village had several names including Staenungum, Steffningsbyn and lastly Stännung.
On 23 September 2023 a quick clay landslide on the E6 highway took place, injuring three people and destroying the motorway, a local road, a fuel station and a fastfood restaurant. A shop selling wood and building materials lost its access to the road network. After nine months of repair work, the E6 motorway reopened on Friday the 5th of July 2024, in the early morning hours.
The following sports clubs are located in Stenungsund:
