Sweden’s maritime history comes to life at the Maritiman Maritime Museum, located along the Gota River in Gothenburg. This unique floating museum features 13 vessels, each with its own story to tell. Visitors can step aboard a 20th-century warship, delve into the cramped quarters of a submarine, and explore historic towboats, barges, and lightships. The museum offers a hands-on experience, allowing guests to interact with the ships and gain a deeper understanding of Sweden’s seafaring past.
