Overview

    Welcome to The Vasa Museum considered as one TOP 10 museums in the World and is a must while visiting Stockholm.

    During this private tour you will be able to admire The Vasa which is the only ship in the World of its kind.

    Commissioned by King Gustav II Adolf during Sweden's Great Power Era, this war ship was built between 1626 and 1628 and was to be the most powerful warship not only in the Baltic Sea, but in the entire world. But just 20 minutes into its maiden voyage, the Vasa capsized and sank into the Stockholm Harbor on August 10, 1628.
    After lying on the seabed for 333 years, the Vasa was rediscovered and salvaged and is today the best preserved and the only 1600s’ galleon in the world.
    More than 98% of the Vasa is totally original, including masts and sails, so it does not appear to be a ship that was wrecked, but rather it seems to be a ship awaiting her next trip.
