No.
There is only 3 weapons vaults in Muskudden Port Complex. One in 1st big vault and two in 2nd big vault. Both big vaults are side by side, near the pier.

Route 6: Forntida Kultur & Ritualer - Click here
Ancient Culture and Rituals sites
Let me start of with the multitude of cairns that I saw on my run through the GZ-world, much more than I show here. Most Cairns I found are used as landmarks or marking a trail. They are basically stacked loose flat stones build into a tower.
▼
You can find them everywhere, even on a tree-covered mountain top.
▼
Here one close to the coast that has extended left and right the beginnings of a low wall.
▼
Sometimes I found some Cairns that seems only half build, or damaged over time. This one is close to the ruins of a castle, I think. It is build on a socle of stones.
▼
Near a camp on the coast I found this one with bloody hand on a soccer ball next to it.
▼
The Cairn near the mouth of a cave seems unnecessary as a marker. So maybe it’s to mark it as a save cave or as a passage or something.
▼
This cairn marked a high point and the locals have build stairs to the top preserving the Cairn in the middle. I have logged the coords of 15 cairns total not counting half built ones, but it would be boring to show them all here.
▼
This is the first cairn I found that seem to have wooden supports. Or maybe they are there for decorative reasons? I found this in the garden of a house in Haga after the Landfall update.
▼
Riksrösen
Another type of Cairns are called Riksrösen. I found three of them in GZ with a mysterious German text on them hinting towards another game. They are sort of milestones. In the real world many Riksrösen mark parts of the border between Norway and Sweden.
III Meilen bis ??
The text on the Riksrösen is not pointing towards anything in Generation Zero. Exactly the same milestone asset has also been used in another game from the Avalanche Studio “The Hunter”, with the same German text.

Grave Mounds
On the next picture you see two large hills and a smaller one just out of view. Gravhögar are larger burial mounds probably made to bury great kings and nobles. The stone grave chamber is buried deep in the tumulus. The bigger the tumulus the more important the people buried there. This funeral tradition was most common in Sweden during the ‘Vendel period’ around 550–800 AD.
▼
The “Högarna of Torun” on the next picture are much smaller hills and there are six of them. One in the middle surrounded by five other hills. I assume that they are also graves.
▼
Stone Circles
Stone circles, I love them. So far I found ten locations with stone circles or stone ships. Although many theories have been proposed to explain the use of Stone circles, it’s most likely related to providing a setting for ceremony or ritual. Here are a few pics.
▼
Here are a few more pics.
▼
▼
▼
Stone ships
The stone ship in Swedish “Skeppssättning” is a variation on a stone circle with the oval shape of a ship. These boat graves probably developed out of a desire to equip the dead with everything they had in life, but also that it was particularly associated with the voyage to Helheim.
▼
Labyrinths
This Ancient (Celtic?) spiral Labyrinth can be found outside Hagaboda wall (south gate). This Spiral Labyrinth has seven rings. Seven is a sacred number. Upon entering the Labyrinth, you’ll walk counterclockwise also known as moon-wise, to be uplifted and enriched.
▼
Runestones
Then finally the so much talked about Runestones. I logged three runestones before landfall, each of which has the same inscription. Gamers have tried to translate this and the most perfect idiomatic Swedish sentence was: “den dag skall komma då Smmasmå smedens ilska ger liv åt metallen” (‘The day will come when Smmasmå the blackmith’s wrath/anger gives life to the metal’).
Runestones are typically raised stones with a runic inscription, but the term can also be applied to inscriptions on boulders and on bedrock. The tradition began in the 4th century and lasted into the 12th century, but most of the runestones date from the late Viking Age (793–1066 AD).
I have found so far ten runestones in the game, are there more, maybe? I haven’t found them yet though.
There are three on Himfjäll.
One behind the Hotel maze.
▼
One at Gudlögs Stenar.
▼
One at Torunshögarna.
▼
I also found five runestones on Archipelago.
One I found on the side of the road north-west of Björkvik farm.
▼
One in Salthamn on the road where the military tank is.
▼
One I found on the road between Iboholmen church and Yttervik safehouse. (New Dawn)
▼
One I found on a hike-trail near the top of Björknäskogen Mountain. (New Dawn)
▼
One I found on the grounds of Saltholmen Church. (Feb '23 update)
▼
I also found two runestones close together in the South Coast Region.
This one I found on a tiny hill at Runby Park. (Recon update)
▼
This one I found on a opposite tiny hill at Runby Park. (Recon update)

Maypoles
A Maypole is a tall wooden pole erected as a part of various European folk festivals, around which a maypole dance often takes place.
The festivals may occur on Midsummer (June 20-26) or Pentecost (Whitsun), although in some countries it is instead erected at Midsummer. In some cases the maypole is a permanent feature that is only utilised during the festival, although in other cases it is erected specifically for the purpose before being taken down again.
So far there are 5 locations that have a Maypole.
One at the Ljuset Commune site.
▼
One in Hagaboda
▼
One west of Haga close to Balders Vall (landfall)
▼
One at Sundby Camping south-west of Sundgård (landfall).
▼
One at Joängen control point in Farmlands (New Dawn).

Route 7: Crashed Vråken Strike Fighters - Click here
On this route I have made photos of all 15 crashed Jet fighters that I came across. I have no idea how many were shot down, and most of them played no role in missions. Still I loved trying to find them. For discussion on aviation go here
I suspect that the north Coast and Forest region have some too. But I haven’t seen them. If you happen to know any crashed Vråken other then the ones I show here, please let me know.
1 This first one is so far the only one I found in the Marshland Region.
It crashed into a pillbox in FOA 2 Arena.
▼
The Arena has 9 circular hatches and 1 big Octagon one in the center.
2 Also only one crashed Vråken found in the Mountain Region.
It crashed south of Overseers villa.
▼
3 On Himfjäll Island I also found just one.
It crashed north-west of St. Charlotte Church. (piloted by Elsa Khorsandi)
▼
Archipelago Region had two Crashed Strike Fighters. Things are looking up.
4 One crashed south-west of Björkvik farm.
▼
4b. Close up of the pilot
5 And one on a mountain ridge near Iboholmen Castle. The tricky location made me wonder how it ended up right there, and not down the mountain.
▼
6 In the South Coast Region I spotted two crashed Jets.
One crashed north of Sillavik Church.
▼
7 And one crashed west of Ängsnäs Manor. (Piloted by Helena Jacobsson)
▼
In the FarmLand Region however I found five. Not surprising really, because in the wide open landscape the crashees are easy to spot.
8 One crashed north-east of anl 129 Vidsele.
▼
9 One crashed south-west of FOA Facitity
▼
10 One Crashed upside down, 200 yards south of the Vråken above in the same field.
▼
11 And number three crashed west of F23 Överby Air Base.
▼
12 And the fourth crashed Vråken is on the side of F23 Överby Air Base runway.
▼
13 The fifth Farmland Vråken east of Dyrbo control point (New Dawn). Dug deep into the sand.
▼
14 And then it happened, one crashed on a cross-roads between Gamla Stan and Björkhagen in the Forest Region. (May update)

If you wonder what they are called in Swedish; Vapenkassun (or just “kassun” for short).
Those buildings with two double steel doors that you need a hairpin to unlock, they are also kassuner but bigger

Route 10: Bridges & Walkways - Click here
Bridges and Walkways
There are many Bridges and Walkways to find. Let’s run past all those I found so far. Starting in Archipelago. This is the long bridge from Norra Saltholmen to Södra Saltholmen.
▼
This Bridge leads to Salthamn.
▼
This old Stone bridge leads to Måsskär Resistance base.
▼
Walkways are not really bridges, but they make crossing the swampy path much easier. You can find this long walkway North of Seggesta farm.
▼
A small and simple, but effective, wooden Bridge at Hastvik.
▼
This wooden passage leads from Saltholmsbro to the main Archipelago island.
▼
Next I checked out the Forest Region. This broken bridge near Sundgård leads to a big unknown island at the East.
▼
This cute little wooden bridge near Kyrkparken crosses a narrow stream. With my boosted jumping boots and pants I could jump across the water if I wanted.
▼
A small wooden bridge with a balustrade near Påskallaholm. Very nice view.
▼
This wooden pier bridge will get you to Littorp with dry feet.
▼
I’m at the bridge near Lillå Settlement leading to the Farmland Region. Close to the river all I hear is the wind and the birds.
▼
Farmland Region is next on my list. This is the one near Stralsund which is totally destroyed.
▼
Broken wooden Pier Bridge east of the Skinnarbol Crater crossing the Överbyan river. Although broken it is still crossable. In the background, one of Don Don Quixote’s Giants is on Fire.
▼
Bridge over Boobron, really recognizable with the lookout tower next to it.
▼
The Överby Bridge is a beautiful old stone bridge East of Skinnarbol.
▼
Small wooden bridge over gully near Guldangen Control Point.
▼
Next I ran across snowy Himfjäll Island and shot this broken bridge east of Österhällen leading to a small Island called Djupskäret.
▼
Gäddön has a nice straight wooden Pier bridge on poles. It looks like it’s been built yesterday. There’s absolutely no sign of subsidence.
▼
Then I went to the Mountain Region to get a picture of the bridge near Klinte.
▼
I am standing in the water, only knee deep, looking at the bridge near Muskudden Port Facility.
▼
A nice but narrow cable bridge crosses the Muskudden basin. Providing a shortcut to the Overseer’s Villa.
▼
Elevated railway (bridging the valley), that comes from Muskudden Port Warehouse and goes towards the Factory entrance RÖ (Redovisningskansli Öst) to the left.
▼
From The mountain Region I travelled to the Marshlands, where near the Skyteclubb this small stone bridge is found, with one of its two arks totally blocked.
▼
The broken Östertörn Bridge north of Stenmyra leads to another small and, for now, unreachable Island and the main land.
▼
Near Borgakulan I found this raised wooden walkway. For walking comfort I guess.
▼
On the South Coast this very long curvy walkway meanders through the reeds close to Tokeröd farm. It bridges from the savehouse to dry land.
▼
The Pier at Brevekins Camping connects the small savehouse island to the the South Coast Region.
▼
A strong looking small wooden bridge with rather sturdy support posts near Annatorp.
▼
In Tangetil I crossed this wooden railless walkway bridging the gap. It has a stone fundament though.
▼
This wooden walk bridge, also at Tangetil, really contributes to make it a wonderful sunny picture.
▼
Concete Bridge over Torsberga Ravine. (Recon Update)

Wooden pathway near Lännbacka.
▼
Funny Pontoon bridge north-east Stenmyra.

Another nice and narrow cable bridge crosses over the largest ravine so far in the game. It’s located east of Sorken bunker in Farmlands.

Route 11: Kasematt or Defence Bunkers - Click here
Kasematt or Defence Bunkers
On my travels through the Swedish game world, I came across a number of Concrete Buildings like the one, on this “Real world” picture below.
▼
These often partially covered, independant defence works, most likely remnants of WW2 are military defense buildings that offer some degree of protection against shelling and bombing and were built of reinforced concrete. I found 19 Kasematt total; 14 in Archipelago, 1 in the mountain Region, 1 in the Marshland Region and 3 in the South Coast Region.
Archipelago_Region
Starting off in Archipelago with a group of two Kasematt.
A kasematt at Saltholmstugan (1 of 2) -100, 3318.
▼
And a kasematt at Saltholmstugan (2 of 2) -123, 3265.
▼
Next a group of four kasematt which are all close together near Sandviken Camping.

A kasematt (1 of 5) with a dead soldier at (836, 3865).
▼
A kasematt (2 of 5) at (926, 3952).
▼
A kasematt (3 of 5) with the power lines on the left at (955, 3910).
▼
A kasematt (4 of 5) close to the coast at (962, 3991).
▼
A kasematt (5 of 5) built in the mountain at (989, 3942).

A group of 4 kasematt also close together I found near Salthamn Bridge on Iboholmen island.
A kasematt (1 of 4) near Salthamn Bridge (2133, 3052).
▼
A kasematt (2 of 4) near Salthamn Bridge (2193, 3035).

Mountain_Region
First I thought these Swedish “Kasematt” bunkers were only featured in Archipelago Region. So I searched and searched and it seemed at first I was right. But then I found 2 more kasematt in two different regions. This one in the Mountain Region at -2854, 423.
