Swedish ship "Götheborg" visiting London on 19 May

The Swedish Ship Götheborg is now in London which is the last stopover before the ship will return to its homeport Göteborg after this almost 20 months long expedition.

Götheborg is the first replica of an East Indiaman that ever sailed in to London. The ship gave a eight shot salute from her iron cannons as she sailed through Tower Bridge. The salute was returned by HMS Belfast firing for the first time since her berthing in London. Then Götheborg continued into London Pool.
