Lake Champlain Maritime Museum
Lake Champlain Maritime Museum, Maritime museum in Ferrisburgh, United States
The Lake Champlain Maritime Museum encompasses 18 buildings across two sites, featuring exhibits, a boat shop, blacksmith facilities, and an archaeological conservation laboratory.
Founded in 1985 in a stone schoolhouse on Basin Harbor Club grounds, the museum has expanded to become a center for Lake Champlain maritime research.
The museum maintains a collection of replica vessels, including the canal schooner Lois McClure, which tours waterways to demonstrate regional navigation traditions.
From May through October, visitors can access the museum's collections and exhibits between 10:00 AM and 4:00 PM without paying admission fees.
The institution leads research on Lake Champlain shipwrecks, including a project to preserve the Spitfire, a gunboat that sank during the Battle of Valcour Island.
