Swedish Army artillery regiment that traced its origins back to the 17th century. It was disbanded in 1811. The regiment's soldiers were recruited fromFinland , and it was also garrisoned there.History
The regiment has its origins in Artilleriregementet raised in 1636. That regiment was split into four new regiments in 1794 of which Finska artilleriregementet was one. It was mainly garrisoned in
Helsinki . Part of the regiment was transferred to Sweden and was garrisoned inGävle as F d finska artilleriregementet after theFinnish War in 1809. The regiment was then disbanded two years later in 1811 when two companies were incorporated intoSvea artilleriregemente and three companies were incorporated intoWendes artilleriregemente .The present-day Artillery Brigade of the
Finnish Defence Forces considers itself a successor unit of the "Finska artilleriregementet".Campaigns
