The naval battle off Stockholm occurred in November 1522 during the Swedish War of Liberation, when a Danish fleet of 39 ships under the command of Søren Norby entered Stockholm Archipelago to relieve the besieged Danish garrison in Stockholm. It was soon approached by a united Swedish–Lübeckian fleet under the commands of Erik Fleming, Staffan Sasse, and Friedrich Bruun. After a bloody battle, Norby withdrew, leaving behind 30 transport ships.
