Trieste II
ποΈ Attraction in Woodcreek Apartments, Poulsbo, WA
Located in the Woodcreek Apartments neighborhood, the Trieste II is a Swiss-designed, Italian-built deep-diving research bathyscaphe. It holds the distinction of being the first crewed vessel to reach the bottom of Challenger Deep in the Mariana Trench.
Something unique: The bathyscaphe was designed by Swiss scientist Auguste Piccard and built at Navalmeccanica in Castellammare di Stabia, Italy.
