Maritime Museums of Gdansk, Poland

Overview of the best maritime museums in Poland,

Gdansk has a rich maritime history and three (yes 3!) fine maritime museums.  Although the city was destroyed in WWII, it was rebuilt with original materials and craftsmanship to match the streets found in many 16th century paintings.

The maritime museums cover from the earliest maritime history to the present, including how Vikings sewed the ribs of their ships together.  The ports and fortresses had a partnership thru the centuries that is seen in scaled replicas of the construction styles and vessels of each era.
