Summary/Abstract: For a few years researches have been carried out on war loot brought to Sweden by general Carl Gustaf Wrangel during the Swedish Deludge. The documents, referring to Poland or Polish affairs, are treasured in the Skokloster Castle (Skoklosters slott) where printed papers are held, and at the Swedish National Archive (Riksarkivet) into which manuscripts from the castle library were deposited in 1892. The researches in question were carried out by Polish scholars, accompanied by Swedish academics, librarians, and archivists. In effect, they issued editions of the most valuable (also unique) literary texts and a number of studies as based on the prepared catalogues. Polish documents of the Skokloster Castle are now being included into the Swedish library system Libris, and restoration works are done to the collection "Polonicasamlingen."
