Background information

The Vasa, named after the Swedish royal dynasty, was commissioned in 1625 under King Gustav II Adolf as the flagship of the Baltic fleet. With a length of 69 meters and equipped with 72 cannons, it was one of the most imposing warships of its time. Over 700 gilded sculptures adorned the magnificent ship. Tragically, the Vasa sank on her maiden voyage in Stockholm harbor on August 10, 1628. She was salvaged 333 years later and can now be admired in the Vasa Museum in Stockholm.
