Scandinavia's most visited museum and home of the world’s only surviving 17th-century (war) ship, the Vasa. This ship is displayed in this purpose-built museum which was inaugurated in 1990. The wreck the Vasa was salvaged in 1961, after 333 years on the sea bottom in Stockholm's harbour. It remained almost completely intact, which made it an invaluable find for many historians and archaelogists. An absolute must see when visiting Stockholm!
