Johan Offesson
Johan Offesson was a Scanian magnate from southwestern Skåne when the province had recently come under Swedish rule. In 1338 he led an uprising against King Magnus Eriksson of Sweden, who had bought Skåne from its Holstein pledge-holders in 1332.
Defeated in 1339, he kept his life, but his stronghold Lindholmen at Svedala was razed to the ground and his family lost its estates in the Skytts and Oxie hundreds.
