Liverpool Attractions
Maritime Museum, Albert Dock, Liverpool
Merseyside Maritime Museum
The fascinating Merseyside Maritime Museum traces the history
and development of the city of Liverpool as a major port. The
Museum houses a range of collections, from an exhibition on the
tragic and brutal Transatlantic Slave trade in which Liverpool
played a major role (soon to become a separate museum), to artworks
reflecting Liverpool's maritime past, artefacts from the Titanic
and the Lusitania, maritime archives and more, including access to
the quaysides opposite the museum and two historic vessels.
