It is situated adjacent to Lake [[Mälaren]] through which it drains into the [[Baltic Sea]], west of [[Stockholm]]. It is connected by waterway with Stockholm by the 13 kilometres long [[Hjälmare kanal]]. It is bounded by the [[Provinces of Sweden\|provinces]] of [[Södermanland]], [[Närke]], and [[Västmanland]]. Hjälmaren is 63 kilometres long, about 20 kilometres wide, and has an average depth of 6 metres, and a surface of 483 km²<sup>2</sup>. The ~~town~~largest oftowns around the lake is [[Örebro]] isand [[Eskilstuna]] situated at the western ~~end~~and eastern ends of the lake. The lake, however, has become an iconic part of Sweden with music festivals taking place on the banks of the lake. Such notable bands to play there are [[The Smashing Pumpkins]], [[Sonic Youth]], and most notably, [[Pearl Jam]]. Between 1878 and 1887, a damming project lowered the surface level of Hjälmaren {{Convert\|1.3\|m\|ft}} to free up land for agriculture and to reduce the risk of flooding. ~~The rebel~~Rebel [[Engelbrekt Engelbrektsson]], was assassinated in 1436 at [[~~:sv:Engelbrektsholmen\|~~Engelbrektsholmen]], an islet in Lake Hjälmaren. ▼ {{clear left}}▼ ▲The rebel [[Engelbrekt Engelbrektsson]], was assassinated in 1436 at [[:sv:Engelbrektsholmen\|Engelbrektsholmen]], an islet in Lake Hjälmaren. ==See also== ▲{{clear}} * [[~~Category:~~Lakes of Sweden]]▼ ==References== ~~{{reflist}}~~ {{commons category\|Hjälmaren}} {{Reflist}} {{Large lakes of Sweden}} {{Authority control}} {{DEFAULTSORT:Hjalmaren}} ▲[[Category:Lakes of Sweden]] [[Category:Norrström basin]] [[Category:~~Geography~~Lakes of Södermanland County]] [[Category:~~Geography~~Lakes of Stockholm County]]
