International Maritime Museum
Internationales Maritimes Museum
A maritime museum in a century-old red-brick warehouse, with nine floors of exhibits featuring tens of thousands of ship models and seafaring artifacts.
The International Maritime Museum is housed in the oldest building in HafenCity, the Kaispeicher B warehouse completed in 1879. Its collection comes from private collector Peter Tamm and includes about 47,000 miniature ship models, navigation instruments, charts, uniforms and ship paintings, covering 3,000 years of seafaring history. On the top floor is a model of the liner Queen Mary 2 built from LEGO bricks. Adult tickets cost about €17, a visit takes 2 to 3 hours, and it is about a 10-minute walk from the Speicherstadt.
