ARA Uruguay, Museum ship in Puerto Madero, Buenos Aires, Argentina.

The ARA Uruguay stretches 46.4 meters in length with a steel hull sheathed in teak and features three masts, two with cross spars.

The corvette, constructed in England during 1874, served the Argentine Navy for 52 years before being converted into a floating ammunition storage facility.

The vessel represents a direct connection to Argentine maritime education, having served as a floating headquarters for the Naval Academy in 1887.

Located in Dock 4 of Puerto Madero, the museum ship opens its decks to visitors who want to explore Argentine naval history firsthand.

In 1903, the ship completed a remarkable Antarctic rescue mission, saving the entire crew of the Swedish vessel Antarctic from severe weather conditions.
