Naval Museum, Maritime heritage museum in Retiro, Madrid, Spain.
The Naval Museum displays extensive collections of ship models, navigation instruments, historical maps, and military artifacts across multiple exhibition halls.
Founded by royal decree in 1792 and officially opened in 1843, the museum changed locations several times before settling at its current Paseo del Prado address.
The museum maintains six branch locations throughout Spain, each contributing to the preservation and presentation of the nation's maritime achievements and naval traditions.
Located at Paseo del Prado 5, the museum opens Tuesday through Sunday from 10:00 AM to 7:00 PM, offering guided tours and educational programs.
The institution houses the Juan de la Cosa map, the earliest preserved cartographic representation of the American continent, created in the year 1500.
