Very much a unique museum where, as far as I know, you can see the only ancient Viking ship that has been found freakishly well preserved.nnThe entire ship is placed in a giant space where you can move across levels to view every bit of the boat to your full satisfaction.nnParts were carefully restored and placed separately to see how the decorations / ornaments looked like historically.nnLovely and simple to enjoy. Do come with your kids, especially boys, and bring your pirate stories Actually my daughters enjoyed it no less without any romantic fighting stories, so just come here and have fun.
Visiting the Vasa Museum was a fascinating and emotional experience. It’s incredible to see a ship that set sail with so much hope but sank so quickly, taking its crew with it. The ship is amazingly well-preserved, and walking around it really makes you think about the people who built it and those who were on board. A must-visit place full of history and wonder!
Very nice museum to visit. The vessel is impressive and the restoration work was amazing. The tour is super large due to the amount of detail they have put for every tiny bit of material they found, what makes it somewhat repetitive and over informative.
What a great experience we've had! When we planned to come to Stockholm this was the first place that was recommended to us, and we had no regrets. It was very interesting from the start, as you're welcomed right away by the huge Vasa ship to then continue on its I believe three floors of history. It's impressive how most of it is the actual ship from the 1600s, where a lot of the items were salvaged and they're all shown at the museum. One of the craziest parts is definitely the reconstruction of the sailors faces, which they almost look scary for how real they look when seen up close. There are also some interactive games to keep yourself or your kids busy. There's also a chance to have your interactive guide with you, but we haven't tried it. Definitely recommended if you're coming to Sweden!
Magnificent display, with great explanations of the ship, it's historical, artistic, and political context. Our museum guide, Stefano was knowledgeable, friendly and articulate.nRecommend highly. It was the best part of our visit to Stockholm. It was January, so very few other visitors.
