Jemery Posted June 7, 2015 #1 Share Posted June 7, 2015 For an upcoming Baltic cruise I'd like to get information on aviation and maritime museums that are accessible to Copenhagen, Warnemunde Tallinn, Helsinki, Stockholm, Gothenburg, and Kiel. Which ones are worth visiting and which ones aren't. Which ones are easily accessible from the cruise port and which ones aren't. How to get to them. The only definite one is the Vasa in Stockholm. We are considering The Finnish Aviation Museum Vantaa The Aeroseum in Gothenburg The Laboe Denkmal. What others? Thanks, -John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danish viking Posted June 7, 2015 #2 Share Posted June 7, 2015 The Danish maritime museum in Helsingør some 45 minutes with train north of Copenhagen. Then you can combine it with a visit to Louisiana arts museum in Humlebæk or Hamlets castle Kronborg also in Helsingør. I can also recommend the ferry trip to nearby Helsingborg. 25 minutes west of Copenhagen in Roskilde there is the Viking ship museum where some well preserved Viking ships found at the bottom of Roskilde Fjord is on display. Here you also can try to sail in a replica of a Viking ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desdichado62 Posted June 7, 2015 #3 Share Posted June 7, 2015 (edited) For Stockholm, the area around Vasa is called Galärvarvet and it is an old shipyard area. Except for Vasa there is also Båthall 2. http://www.sjohistoriska.se/en/Visit-the-Maritime-Museum/Visit1/Museum-ships--boats-at-Galarvarvet/Bathall-2/ http://sv.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gal%C3%A4rvarvet http://www.sjohistoriska.se/en/Visit-the-Maritime-Museum/Visit1/Museum-ships--boats-at-Galarvarvet/Information-for-visitors/ https://www.google.com/maps/place/Wasahallen+B%C3%A5thall+1,+Wasahamnen,+Stockholm/@59.3272189,18.0934878,531m/data=!3m1!1e3!4m7!1m4!3m3!1s0x0:0x0!2zNTnCsDE5JzIxLjAiTiAxOMKwMDYnMDAuMCJF!3b1!3m1!1s0x0000000000000000:0xeeedd8be3b7e9fb1!6m1!1e1 A bit further away at Djurgårdsbrunnsviken, there is the Sea historic museum. http://www.sjohistoriska.se/en/Visit-the-Maritime-Museum/Exhibitions/ If you have time I would also suggest to stroll around Skeppsholmen for a while. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skeppsholmen Get there with the Djugården ferry from Allmänna gränd at Djurgården. For Gothenburg you have two-three maritime museums: Martiman, Sjöfartsmuseet and the Swedish East Indian Company. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maritiman http://goteborg.se/wps/portal/sjofartsm/english http://www.soic.se/en/visit-us/ However for SOIC, the east indianmen will likely be away on tours so it probably won't be much to see at her berth. For Aeroseum see instructions on their website: http://www.aeroseum.se/english/contacts.html but it depends on which ship you are on and where it docks. This from Nordstan at downtown Göteborg: http://reseplanerare.vasttrafik.se/bin/query.exe/en?ld=fe1&L=vs_vasttrafik&seqnr=1&ident=1g.01001168.1433714610&HWAI=CONNECTION$C0-0!id=C0-0!HwaiConId=C0-0!HwaiDetailStatus=details!;~CONNECTION$C0-0!HwaiMoreDetailStatus=UNDEFINED!HwaiMapStatus=UNDEFINED!HwaiMapNumber=UNDEFINED!HwaiMapSlider=UNDEFINED!;&HWAI=JS!ajax=yes!& https://www.google.com/maps/place/G%C3%B6teborg+Nordstan/@57.7087835,11.9695507,17z/data=!4m2!3m1!1s0x464ff36384cf8d55:0x349b9c41409a57bc Edited June 7, 2015 by Desdichado62 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
