The vessel was built 1909 in Motala mechanical workshop (as a sister vessel to S/S Drottningholm) to be used as a link between the lake Mälaren and the archipelago.
M/S Angantyr was totally renovated in the end of the19th century and has low free-boards wich gives you a close connection to the surface of the water and from the large sun deck the sight is fantastic.
