Explore the Vasa ship history on location
Agnes was on board the Vasa ship when it sank on its maiden voyage in 1628. She was only four years old at the time, but can still recall the terror of falling into the water with her uncle – one of the blacksmiths who helped build the ship. Agnes’ uncle managed to save her from drowning, but ten years later, she still can’t shake the feeling that something else was lost in the water as well that day.
There seem to be answers hidden away in a locked box her mother keeps in the attic, so Agnes decides to steal the box and heads out on the streets of Stockholm in an attempt to trace down the secrets of the Vasa ship.
