Listing of historic ships in Sweden

The Maritime Museum in Stockholm is responsible for the listing of historic ships in Sweden (Swedish: kulturmärkning av fartyg i Sverige).

The purpose of the listing is to encourage and support owners of historic ships and boats to preserve and take care of their vessels.

[2][3] In addition, the listing aims to encourage conscious private cultural heritage ownership and management.

[4][6] For example, a news item from 2013 notes that at Galärvarvet [sv] on Djurgården in central Stockholm, listed boats and ships may berth for a short period of time free of charge if they agree to let visitors come aboard.

[7] Listed pleasure boats are also e.g. exempted from a national ban on letting out toilet waste into the surrounding water.
