HMS Af Chapman, built in 1888, is a historic three-masted barque located in Skeppsholmen, Stockholm. Originally a cargo ship for Australia, it was repurposed as a school ship in 1915 and has served as a youth hostel since 1949. Visitors can explore its impressive architecture, including its 41.6-meter-high mast and 26 sails. The ship offers a unique glimpse into maritime history and is a popular destination for both tourists and locals. While there is no admission fee for visiting the area, staying overnight at the hostel does incur charges. The site is easily accessible by public transport and has surrounding scenic views of Stockholm.
