The invasion of Hvaler was a Swedish military invasion of the Norwegian archipelago during the Swedish-Norwegian War of 1814. The invasion went off rather peacefully. Bad weather had delayed the Swedish fleet and troop transports, which gave the Norwegian fleet and army time to evacuate the island.
