WHAT'S ON
En bild av ett segelfartyg, en fyrmastad stålbark, syns från sidan. Den har alla segel hissade och har ett svartmålat skrov. I bakgrunden syns hav och smått molnig himmel. Bilden har ett mörkblått filter och har inga andra färger. Bilden är klippt till att passa en perfekt cirkel. Texten "Pommern" står i sirlig font i vitt diagonalt över bilden, med nedre delen till vänster neråtlutad. Skeppet är också vänstertungt.

ABOUT THE MUSEUM

Upptäck och upplev Ålands Sjöfartsmuseum

Worldclass ship's models

The Åland Maritime Museum has an impressive collection of ship’s models, mostly sailing ships. Some were made on board ship by sailors in their spare time; others were made by professional model makers. Common to all of them is that they are very high standard and show evidence of skill, knowledge and patience. 

EXHIBITIONS

The most kid-friendly museum on Åland

At the Åland Maritime Museum there are a lot of things for families to discover and do. Go aloft, stow cargo and take command of your own ship. Finding the ship’s rat Ruby’s own mini exhibitions, cleverly hidden in cute little ratholes in the museum, is a task that everybody can get involved in. And don’t miss our imaginative children’s room Ruby and the Sea. Here you can dive into the sea and discover wrecks, secret mermaid grottos and exciting sea creatures.

WHAT OUR GUESTS SAY

”

A truly wonderful museum! This place is a true gem! If you are remotely interested in ships and life on ships, or just the history of the Aland Islands, this is well worth the time. As a great bonus, they have managed to make a museum that is great fun for kids as well - quite an accomplishment!
