Hastings Fishermen's Museum
Hastings Fishermen's Museum, Maritime museum in Hastings, England
The Hastings Fishermen's Museum displays traditional fishing equipment, maritime artifacts, and photographs within a former church building on Rock-a-Nore Road.
The museum opened in 1956 after local preservation groups transformed the former St Nicholas Church, which had served the fishing community since 1854.
The exhibits include items from the Hastings Winkle Club, established in 1900 by local fishermen to support residents experiencing financial difficulties.
Visitors can access the museum through donations instead of fixed admission fees, with the facility located near several parking areas along the seafront.
The museum houses a preserved fishing lugger boat and a 14-foot scale model of the 1522 vessel Henri Grace A Dieu.
