Osmundtunna 6 / Osmund Barrel

3D Model

The Osmund Wreck sank North-east of Dalarö and is built from timber from Uppland dated around 1540. The barrel was salvaged in May 2024 and is built from Pine dated to the 1550ies Uppland. There is about 100 barrels, in good condition, filled with osmund iron which is unique. Other finds of single barrels are in worse shape and heavily corroded:
