Stockholm - Wasa Museum (Vasa Museum)
|
|
On the west side of Djurgårdsbro in Stockholm (also accessible from the city by boat) is the Wasa Museum, housing the warship "Wasa", which sank in Stockholm harbor on its maiden voyage in 1628 and was brought to the surface again in 1961. The "Wasa" was located on the seabed in 1956 at a depth of 32m/105ft, and work began three years later on recovering and preserving it.
