The National Maritime Museum is the world’s largest maritime museum with a vast collection that spans artworks, maps and charts, memorabilia and thousands of other objects.
The idea for the National Maritime Museum dates back to 1927, when a public appeal was launched to develop a ‘national naval and nautical museum’. The Museum’s name was suggested by Rudyard Kipling, although the writer passed away a year before it opened.
The Museum buildings began life in 1807 as a school for the children of seafarers, and the South-West Wing was built as a dining hall in 1876 and was opened by King George VI in 1937.
