The Vasa Museum is temporarily closed due to the Swedish government's restrictions to reduce the spread of Covid-19. We hope to be able to reopen in mid-January.

The Vasa ship capsized and sank in Stockholm 1628. After 333 years on the sea bed the mighty warship was salvaged and the voyage could continue. Today Vasa is the world's best preserved 17th century ship and the most visited museum in Scandinavia.
