Museum in 1964
Our family traveled extensively during the summers of 1964 and 1965. I have a recollection of seeing the Vasa, but it would have been long before the current museum (which is beautiful, by the way).

In 1988 Vasa was moved to the new building, the Vasa Museum, which is purpose built and the permanent museum for the ship.
Some parts of the old museum remain and today house another museum - the Aquaria Water Museum.
Thank you for keeping history alive.

The first Vasa Museum (Wasavarvet) was located about 300 meter från the new one.
The af Chapman youth hostel is located on another island called Skeppsholmen but still close.
