Muzeum Rybołówstwa Morskiego w Niechorzu, Maritime fishing museum in Niechorze, Poland.
The Maritime Fishing Museum in Niechorze displays the history of Baltic Sea fishing across two floors, with traditional equipment, amber collections, and objects from fishermen's daily lives. The exhibition also includes an outdoor section featuring authentic fishing boats that were donated by local fishermen.
The museum was established in 1994 through efforts by the local community to preserve the maritime heritage of Western Pomerania. Its creation came from a desire to document and protect the fishing traditions and history of the region.
Fishing shaped how people in this coastal region lived and worked for centuries, and the museum shows how important the sea was to their daily survival. Walking through the exhibits, you encounter the tools and knowledge that fishing families passed down through generations.
The museum is located near Niechorze's beach and is easy to reach on foot or by car. During nice weather, it is worth visiting the outdoor areas to explore the boats at your own pace.
Many visitors miss the fact that some of the displayed boats were still built by hand, as fishermen practiced for centuries. This handmade construction shows skills that few people master today.
