The Curious Tale of HMS Kalmarsund: From Naval Warship to Museum Vessel

Beyond the battlefield, the compelling journey of HMS Kalmarsund persists as a museum ship.

HMS Kalmarsund, previously called MUL 13, served in the Swedish navy, joining in 1953. The vessel was docked alongside HMS Öresund (18) on the south coast until 1985. Later that year, the ship was renamed Kalmarsund and now resides as a museum exhibit at Göteborgs Maritima Centrum.
