The Vasa Museum (Vasamuseet) is a maritime museum in Stockholm that is located on the island of Djurgården that houses the only fully intact seventeenth-century ship, the Vasa, which sank on her maiden voyage in 1628. The main hall of the Vasa Museum contains the ship itself, as well as exhibits related to the archaeological findings of the ships and early 17th-century Sweden and models portraying the construction, sinking, location and recovery of the ship. Furthermore, the museum features four other museum ships moored in the harbour outside: an ice breaker (1915), a lightvessel (1903), a torpedo boat (1966) and a rescue boat (1944).

Een geweldig museum, volledig gebouwd om een gestrand schip – dat wonderlijk goed bewaard is gebleven – heen. Er wordt veel achtergrondinformatie gegeven, maar met name het schip zelf is erg indrukwekkend. Dit museum mag je zeker niet overslaan bij een bezoek aan Stockholm!
