A Swedish warship that sank during her maiden voyage in 1628, likely due to its flawed design. She was rediscovered in the 1950s, and the remains of 15 people were later located in the wreck. The ship was raised and restored in 1961, and can currently be seen on display at the Vasa Museum in Stockholm.
