We study a Stokes problem in a three dimensional fractal domain of Koch type and in the corresponding prefractal approximating domains. We prove that the prefractal solutions do converge to the limit fractal one in a suitable sense. Namely the approximating velocity vector fields as well as the approximating associated pressures converge to the limit fractal ones respectively.

Keywords: Asymptotic behaviour, energy forms, fractal domains, semigroups, Stokes problem.
