The world's largest ocean-going wooden sailing ship, and a unique replica of an 18th century ship Götheborg of Sweden is coming to Helsinki in Midsummer. The ship will be also open to visitors.
On board the Götheborg, the visitors learn about the history of the East India Companies, and the original ship that sank outside the Gothenburg harbour in 1745, and before that sailed three times to Asia. The staff will tell modern tales of sailing an 18th century ship, and about the exciting expedition to Asia.
On board there is station guiding, that means that people follow a marked route around the ship and the ship’s deckhands are stationed in different places around the ship, ready to tell about the ship, sailing on board and the Asia Expedition.
