In 1628, as the Vasa commenced her maiden voyage, the ship began to founder - and a mere twenty minutes after setting sail, the 64-cannon battleship sank to the bottom of Stockholm harbor. For the next 333 years, the Vasa rested on the seabed, a repository of 17th-century maritime life. Only after a laborious and painstaking salvage effort in 1961 did the Vasa break the water's surface again - and in 1988, the Vasa made her last voyage to the purpose-built museum in which she remains housed today. |

TACK to all for joining us at SWEDISH YULETIDE 2011! And for contributing to another cozy, happy and welcoming Christmas fair.
Hard to fathom, perhaps, but Scandinavia's most visited museum is a once-sunken warship in Stockholm, Sweden. Now celebrating its 50th anniversary, the Vasa Museum is home to the royal battleship Vasa, the only preserved 17th-century ship in the world.
