Äskekärrskeppet

Äskekärrskeppet ("the Äskekärr skip") is a Viking knarr from the 9th century, which is one of the oldest sailing vessels discovered in Scandinavia.

Discovery
The Äskeskärrskeppet was discovered in 1933 by a farmer who was draining a wet meadow on his lands in the village Äskekärr, present-day Ale Municipality, on the River Göta in Sweden.

It is currently housed in the Gothenburg Museum in Gothenburg, Sweden.
