For three years, specialists had worked on building the Navy's new warship- the Vasa. She was a "royal ship" the seventeenth-century.
But fate decreed otherwise; the ship foundered shortly after embarking on her maiden voyage on August 10th, 1628.
Vasa was salvaged after 333 years on the bottom of Stockholm's Ström in April 24th, 1961, and is now the only preserved seventeenth-century ship.
