A Ghost from the Depths

In 1628, the Vasa set sail as the most powerful warship in the world. Its tragic end in the Stockholm harbor was only the beginning of its story.

Preserved for over 300 years, the ship remains 98% original. This is the only 17th-century ship of its kind in existence today.

Imperial Artistry

Every inch of the ship was adorned with carvings meant to strike awe into enemies and allies alike. Today, you can stand face-to-face with these ancient wooden giants.

The intricate decorations tell stories of Swedish power and Baroque craftsmanship that survived the deep for centuries.
