Vancouver Maritime Museum

The Vancouver Maritime Museum is dedicated to the maritime history of Vancouver, the province of British Columbia and the entire Canadian Arctic.

The center was opened in 1959 and immediately won the attention of both local residents and tourists. The site is an ancient Canadian Maritime Museum and one of the best centers in western North America dedicated to such topics. The visiting card of the museum is a schooner called St. Roch, which belonged to the Royal Mounted Police and circled the first North America.

The Vancouver Maritime Museum also houses the submarine Ben Franklin (PX-15).

The museum presents many different vessels made of a variety of materials - cardboard, paper, bones.
