It is a must-see museum in Stockholm. Not only the ship is interesting by itself, but the exhibition has a lot about how they raised and restored it.

It's an old trope, but it is of those things that pictures truly cannot capture, too. The ship is unfathomably large.

I didn't have a camera lens wide enough to reasonably get the entire thing in frame, from any location in the building.

I went recently! 100% a must see museum.

I was shocked when I walked in and the museum just goes so far down into the ground

the museum is basically built on top of the dry dock where it was restored!

I should visit again sometime soon, it's been years. Absolute top tier museum.
