A 15th century merchant ship,  which was sunk deliberately some 600 years ago, was pulled nearly intact from a Dutch River on Wednesday.

A spokesperson for the Rijkswaterstaat called it an historical event.  “This is an important moment in maritime history”, the spokesperson said to the newspaper.  Archaeologists and historians have high expectations on what can be learned from this mostly intact medieval ship.
