Tall Ship Glenlee, Museum ship at Riverside Museum, Glasgow, Scotland

The steel-hulled three-masted Glenlee measures 245.5 feet in length and features double topgallant sails over double topsails at the Riverside Museum.

Built in 1896 at Port Glasgow, the vessel operated as a cargo carrier for 23 years before becoming a Spanish Navy training ship named Galatea in 1922.

The vessel contains preserved quarters, cargo holds, and educational displays that demonstrate maritime life and trading practices from the late Victorian period.

Located at 150 Pointhouse Place in Glasgow, the museum ship provides free admission and includes facilities such as a cafe and education center.

The vessel remains one of only five Clyde-built sailing ships still floating, featuring an original hull structure from 1896 and period-specific rigging systems.

Location: Glasgow City

Inception: January 1, 1896
