Art Museum · Best for history enthusiasts & families
The Vasa is the best-preserved 17th-century ship in the world. Built for King Gustavus Adolphus of Sweden, the warship sank just 1,300 metres into her maiden voyage in August 1628, in Stockholm harbour, and remained on the seabed for 333 years. The vessel was raised in 1961 and transferred to the Vasa Museum, which opened in its current purpose-built facility in 1990.
