What to expect

The Maritime Museum of Barcelona is a great place for families to learn about the maritime history of Catalonia. The museum is located in the former shipyards of Drassanes, a Gothic building that dates back to the 13th century. The museum showcases a collection of ships and boats, including a faithful reproduction of a galley from the 16th century and a three-mast schooner. Visitors can also see nautical instruments, weapons, and paintings, as well as models of ships that were used for training and testing purposes. The museum's collection includes objects and documents that stand out for their historical interest, rarity, or aesthetic value. The schooner Santa Eulalia, which is located in Port Vell, is also part of the museum and can be viewed by visitors
