Celebrate 100 Years of Pol II / Artemis – Sail the Larvik Fjord with Us!
In 2026, the tall ship Artemis returns to Larvik to celebrate a remarkable milestone: 100 years since she was built as Pol II and launched into service for the renowned Norwegian company Melsom & Melsom.
To mark this special anniversary, members of the Melsom family, representatives of the maritime community, and the current owner of Artemis will gather in Larvik for a unique weekend of celebration and remembrance. One of the highlights will be a sailing voyage on the beautiful Larvik Fjord—and you are invited to join us.
Step aboard a ship that has witnessed a century of maritime history. Feel the power of the wind in the sails, help set the canvas if you wish, and enjoy breathtaking views of the fjord from the deck of this historic vessel. The voyage offers a rare opportunity to experience traditional sailing while becoming part of a truly special occasion.
Whether you are interested in maritime heritage, classic ships, or simply looking for an unforgettable day on the water, this voyage aboard Artemis promises an experience unlike any other.
Join us in celebrating 100 years of Artemis and become part of her continuing story.
