National Museum of Bermuda

The National Museum of Bermuda occupies a fortress called The Keep in the Royal Naval Dockyard, displaying extensive exhibits about ships, shipwrecks, and island development. The site spreads across a large area with multiple buildings holding collections related to maritime history and Bermuda's past.

The museum complex began as a British naval base and was later developed as a cultural site to preserve Bermuda's history. The fortress itself was built by workers and now serves as a central location for understanding the island's past.

The Commissioner's House displays exhibits about how people lived and defended the island, with collections showing stories of slavery, migration, and seafaring traditions. Visitors can see how these different aspects shaped daily life and identity on Bermuda.

The location is easily accessible and visitors can spend as much time as they want exploring. Signs around the grounds help you move between different areas.

The museum grounds house an unusual building made from prefabricated cast-iron pieces that was remarkable for its time. The site also displays treasures found underwater, including gold bars and jewelry discovered during archaeological work.
