BEFORE YOUR VISIT
The Åland Maritime Museum is located on Hamngatan 2 in Mariehamn’s Western Harbour, only 500 metres from the ferry terminal and 1 km from the town centre.
There is a car park outside the Maritime Museum on Hamngatan 2 (2 hours) and by Esplanaden (4 hours), just south of the museum. Remember your parking timer if you park here. There is unlimited parking along Norragatan.
The Åland Maritime Museum is an accessible museum. Lifts and ramps makes it possible for pram drivers and visitors with functional variations to move around the museum with ease. The auditorium and the reception are equipped with audio loops We strive to make our texts easy to read and understand and to keep as many of our exhibited objects displayed out in the open so those who need to “see” the objects with their hands can do so.
Café Byssan offers simple fare, such as coffee, soft drinks, ice cream and cakes. If you want something more substantial there are several good restaurants nearby. Restaurang Nautical and Adlon pizzeria is open all year while ÅSS Paviljongen and Pub Albin are summer restaurants.
