Fort Noko

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Fort Noko, (also known as "Noko Castle" (Nokon Linna)) was established around 1000 AD on the west coast of Finland. During Finland's semi-independence from 1000-1200 Fort Noko was a minor defence post against the Hurri (the Swedes). Itt is mentioned in Timo Noko's family tree referring to the documents dated 1222 AD by Bishop Thomas.

Fort Noko may also refer to "Nokola" (the House of Noko) established by Erik of Pomerania in 1407 AD in the southwestern part of Finland.
