    Description

    The Sound Toll Registers (STR) are the accounts of the toll which the king of Denmark levied on the shipping through the Sound, the strait between Sweden and Denmark. They have been conserved (with gaps in the first decades) for the period from 1497 to 1857, when the toll was abolished. From 1574 on, the series is almost complete.
    The STR are being kept by the Danish National Archives (Rigsarkivet) in Copenhagen.Sound Toll Registers online (short: STR online) is the electronic database of the complete Sound Toll Registers (STR).
    STR online is essentially an instrument of historical analysis. It is a reduction of an organic historical source. It is an interpretation of the STR and not a direct copy or a source edition.
    Sound Toll Registers Online consists of two databases: Database 1 for all years before 1634 and Database 2 for all years after 1633.
