The Shipwreck Treasure Museum can be found in the Merchants of Charlestown building over looking Charlestown harbour, Cornwall. Four-legged friends are very welcome at the Shipwreck Treasure Museum and dog bowls with water are placed around the Museum for their comfort as much as yours.

A fascinating collection of items from shipwrecks. There is a lot of information about how these wrecks came about and the methods of recovering items from the wrecks. Generally, very interesting.

facinating insight into the marine history of Cornwall, also the harbour has featured many times in the Poldark series and it is possiable to board the resident tall ship.
