Wasa Warship Draws Tourists To Stockholm Harbor
In Stockholm the wooden warship Wasa, sunk in 1628, is a top harbor attraction. Divers raised it in 1950 and archaeologists recovered about 16 000 objects from its mud filled hull. The ship, commissioned by King Gustav II Adolf, lies on a pontoon in an aluminum housing as visitors tour a museum preserving timbers and relics amid high humidity to prevent drying.
