Grimsby Fishing Heritage Centre, Maritime museum in Grimsby, England.
The Grimsby Fishing Heritage Centre features original trawler interiors, preserved artifacts, and detailed exhibits depicting the daily life of maritime workers in the 1950s.
Established in 1991, the museum documents the period when Grimsby developed into a major fishing port after railways connected the town to London markets in 1848.
The museum presents authentic accounts from former trawlermen through guided tours, personal stories, and detailed reconstructions of their living and working environments.
The facility opens Tuesday through Sunday during summer, with modified winter hours, offering adult admission at £8.50 and children's tickets at £4.
Visitors can explore the Ross Tiger, a restored 1957 side-trawler permanently moored at Alexandra Dock, through specialized guided tours lasting up to one hour.
