Holyhead Maritime Museum

Museums & Art Centres
The Holyhead Maritime Museum, officially opened by the Duke of Westminster in March 1986, houses a wonderful collection of exhibits to illustrate the fascinating maritime history of Holyhead. Examine detailed models of ships sailing the Irish Sea over 100 years ago and compare them to the modern technically advanced vessels of today.

Housed in a Second World War air raid shelter, situated alongside the Maritime Museum, is the permanent exhibition "Holyhead at War". Here visitors can learn about the experiences and sacrifices made by the men and women of the town during both World Wars and more recent conflicts. You can even test our Air Raid Warning Siren
