Swedish National Maritime Museum

Description of Sjöhistoriska museet

The National Maritime Museum in Stockholm displays models of Swedish vessels and warships from the 17th century and onwards as well as paintings, weapons and uniforms to a total of 100,000 objects. An example is the cabin of the schooner Amphion, a ship that belonged to King Gustav III.

The inmediate surroundings offer statues and sculptures related to the Swedish maritime history.

The museum dates back to 1938 as the Swedish state received a donation by the Knut and Alice Wallenberg Foundation.
