Devonport Naval Heritage Centre, Maritime museum in Plymouth, England
The Devonport Naval Heritage Centre contains exhibits about naval operations, maritime artifacts, and military equipment within a former 1851 fire station building.
Founded in 1969, the museum preserves the maritime legacy of Plymouth's naval base, which supported the Royal Navy through conflicts since the reign of Edward I.
The museum presents collections of Royal Navy figureheads, uniforms through different periods, and model ships that reflect British naval traditions.
The centre opens every Wednesday from March to October between 10:00 and 15:00, with additional openings scheduled for the second Saturday of each month.
The nuclear-powered submarine HMS Courageous, which served in the Falklands War, remains under the management of this heritage centre.
