Suomen Joutsen has been open to the public since 1991.
She is one of the largest museum ships in Finland, slightly shorter but bigger by gross register tonnage than the four-masted barque Pommern in Mariehamn, Åland, and considerably bigger than the wooden barque Sigyn which is moored next to her.
Suomen Joutsen was moved from her original location next to Forum Marinum in 2002.
Her extensive renovations since the late 1990s included drydockings in 1998 and 2006.
Since 2009 she has hosted a permanent exhibition about her career.

On 25 July 2001, Suomen Joutsen received minor damage when the 1938-built steamer Ukkopekka collided with the museum ship.
However, the damaged shell plating and frame were above the waterline, so the ship was in no danger of sinking.

In 2006 Pekka Koskenkylä, the founder of Nautor, revealed that the Swan line of luxury sailing yachts was named after Suomen Joutsen.

In September 2016, Suomen Joutsen was towed to Turku Repair Yard for drydocking.
After inspection and maintenance of the underwater parts, which is typically done once in a decade, the museum ship should be good for another ten years.
The ship returned to Forum Marinum in late October.
