Merseyside Maritime Museum lies – where else – on Albert Dock on the city’s waterfront. Few cities have a seafaring heritage as rich as Liverpool’s and Merseyside Maritime Museum recounts its history through a series of fascinating exhibits. From the American Civil War to the Battle of the Atlantic, Liverpool has played a pivotal role in global events spanning over two centuries. As you tour the visitor attraction, you’ll transported back in time to the Edwardian era, when the pier master was king of the dock and responsible for controlling the throng of vessels jostling to unload their precious cargo from all corners of the globe. Tax dodging, civil protest, smuggled contraband and two world wars all form part of the city’s maritime story, one that’s vividly documented at Seized! The Border and Customs Uncovered. Visitors of all ages will be enthralled by the hair-raising misdeeds that were once part and parcel of life on Liverpool’s waterfront. In addition to touring the museum, there’s the option to check out the adjacent Old Dock before savouring a sumptuous spread at Maritime Dining Room on the museum’s top floor.

I've been here for the first time, attracted mainly from a "uncovered titanic storyYes there were some bits and bobs about the titanic but I was expecting much more.For instance a reconstruction of some rooms, the engines or stuff like that. Ironically, outside the museum there is an old boat saved from the scrap which has a working reconstruction of the same engines.
