Maritime Museum of the Atlantic

1675 Lower Water Street Halifax, Nova Scotia B3J 1S3

Located in Halifax, Maritime Museum is the largest and oldest maritime museum in Canada, with over 30,000 artifacts and atleast 10 permanent exhibits including Titanic's devastating story. The museum houses the remains of the wreckage, as well as the ill-fated past of the unsinkable ship which sank on Nova Scotia's waters in April 14, 1912. The museum also tells the tale of the infamous 1917 Halifax Explosion, which was by far the largest man-made, non-nuclear explosion the world has ever witnessed. Maritime Museum aims to educate the people about the marine heritage of their beloved city, as well as taking part in preserving the ghastly recounts of ship wrecks, World War II boat remains, and Canadian-born mariners.
