Svenner

Svenner is an archipelago in the municipality of Larvik in Vestfold, Norway. It is located outside the mouth of the fjord Larviksfjorden.[1] A lighthouse was established in 1874 on the island Korpekollen.[2] The smaller islands of Bølene, Strømsundholmen and Ferjeholmen were listed as bird sanctuaries in 2009.[3][4][5] Geologically, the islands consist largely of syenite.[1]
