The battleship that never saw battle: The story of the world famous Vasa - which was built to be the pride and glory of the budding Swedish nation but sank due to #misconstruction after only 20 minutes afloat in the Stockholm #harbour in 1628 - is exceptionally well told at the #Vasa #Museum Stockholm. From 6 levels you get a good view of the enormous #original #vessel, which had been found in the late 1950s after more than 300 years on the bottom of the sea and lifted and restored in the following decades. And you get a lot of info about life and death as well as #craftmanship and #war in early #17th #century #Sweden. A really fascinating museum! #travel #traveltips #travelgram #stockholm #vasamuseum #swedish #reise #schweden #travelblogger #blog #reisetipp #mustsee #nofilter #ship (at Vasa Museum) https://www.instagram.com/p/BwC2fBclOQk/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1x1k7onjde1x0
