Full description

The museum has collected around 50,000 objects, over 900,000 images and the largest collection of nautical books in the Nordic countries, that tell the stories of Sweden’s maritime activities from both civilians and the military. Among the objects on display in the museum are model ships, weapons, uniforms and works of art. Even the building itself is maritime themed, including the mosaic floors and ornate décor.

As you make your way through the museum, you’ll move from the ground floor to the basement and on to the top floor. One of the many highlights in the museum’s collection is the Amphion, Gustav III’s pleasure yacht. In the memorial hall models and figureheads surround the stern section of the Amphion from 1778, and you can see the ship’s cabin where the king orchestrated an attack on Russia.
