The Pomeranian town now Darłowo, where Eric of Pomerania spent his final years.
Rugenwalde (modern Darłowo) was a Pomeranian coastal town on the Baltic where Eric of Pomerania, deposed from the Scandinavian crowns, spent his final decades ruling Pomeranian territories.
Eric of Pomerania's death at Rugenwalde in 1459 ended the Pomeranian dynasty's connection to Nordic kingship. He had been deposed from all three Scandinavian crowns by the 1440s and returned to govern his ancestral territories, where his legacy was primarily local rather than Scandinavian.
