About Itsasmuseum Bilbao

The Museo Marítimo Ría de Bilbao in the Spanish city of Bilbao is dedicated to maritime history and the development of the city. The unique exhibition space sits beneath a bridge on the grounds of a former shipyard. Here you can marvel at numerous ship models, while the permanent exhibition explores both traditional wooden shipbuilding and modern metal shipbuilding. One highlight is the outdoor area, which showcases historic ships in a drained dock basin. You can reach these boats by stairs, and they offer an impressive glimpse into the region's maritime past.
