Vasa Museum - Stockholm, Sweden
Vasa Anno 1628
King Gustav Adolf's mighty ship, the Vasa, was intended for a major role in the Swedish Navy. But fate decreed otherwise: the ship foundered shortly after embarking on her maiden voyage in 1628. The Vasa was salvaged after 333 years on the bottom of Stockholms Strom and is now the world's only preserved seventeenth century ship. Adorned with more than 700 carved sculptures, she is also a unique treasury of art.
Several exhibitions tell of the Vasa and her time. A film about the Vasa is shown every hour. There are guided tours daily.
Group tours or film viewings may be booked on Tel\; +46 8 519 548 70
