The Vasa Museum in Stockholm houses the Vasa, a 17th-century warship that famously sank on its maiden voyage in 1628 and was salvaged more than 300 years later. Remarkably well preserved, the ship offers a unique window into Sweden’s naval power and craftsmanship during the Age of Greatness. Today, visitors can admire the Vasa’s towering structure, intricate carvings, and the artifacts recovered from the wreck, all telling the story of life aboard and the dramatic circumstances of its sinking. As one of Sweden’s most visited museums, it combines history, engineering, and maritime heritage in an unforgettable experience.
