The Sound has been one of the busiest waterways in the world. Ships from many nations and trading cities made more than a million and a half passages through the Sound from the late fifteenth to the nineteenth century, leaving information on their cargoes in the Toll records. Most of these registers are still extant and are remarkable for their length and detail (more than 700 volumes). This collection is now available for research and is of incomparable importance for the history of trade and shipping and more generally for the economic history of western, northern and eastern Europe.
