About Bastad
The town of Bastad is located in a sheltered bay with the Hallandian ridge stretching behind it. The town borders the shore, whereafter the terrain raises until the dense vegetation of the ridge takes over.
The first city privileges were granted in the 14th or 15th century when the area belonged to Denmark. The first certain date is 1513 when it was re-granted. At the time, the name in print would translate to "Boat (landing) place".
In 1658 the area was conquered by Sweden, and Bastad was given new "special" privileges in 1664, because it was of a too insignificant size to receive the full royal charter as one of Sweden's cities. The minor privilege allowed the town to be used for commerce, handicraft and hostelry. The minor privilege was in effect until 1858 when it got proper rights as a merchant town, or koping. It has been the seat of Bastad Municipality Bastad since 1971.
