First I visited the ship and learnt a lot by reality itself, photos and texts. Afterwards I went to the museum due the combined ticket, and I recommend to visit both of them.
This was interesting. Clidren loved. Litle bit expensive, but it worth it. I recommed to go pommern.
Impressing 4-mast steelbarque, part of the Maritime museum of Mariehamn Åland. You can see how the squarerigg sailors lived, as well as the officers.
It's fascinating to have a walk at this amazing ship well. The ship is located in the harbour and can be seen from the large ferries arriving to Mariehamn every day.Bring your kids with you, they will have fun there as well. And don't forget the museum just in the neighbourhood.
This ship gives a good picture of the life of a sailor on one of the last sailing ships. Good displays with detailed text in four languages.
The museum and ship were a fantastic experience, in the course of the afternoon I learned a lot about the history of seafaring and what it has meant for this tiny island nation. We spent over three hours there, studying the museum exhibits and visiting the ship.
After going through this totally restored three mast ship you can understand what they did, how they served the developing world and what caused them to disappear.
Part of the maritime museum. A well preserved tall sailing ship moored at the quay just outside the museum. Lots of info about the history of the sailing ships and what they were used for. Not much else to see in town so go and see this. Kids will love it and the museum.
Really nice and informative Museumship, where everyone will have at least something to see. Lot of old photos for example, but also many items that tells about the life of a sailor.
I visited the POMMERN in Mariehamn. The ship offers a tremendous overview of how life has been 100 years, ago. Great movie where the real sailors experiences are still captures from them in person. Ship nicely in shape - seems like being ready to sail! Not only technical but a wealth of human stories making life of that time just very lifly! You can just enjoy the feeling and atmosphere in the captain's cabin or read all about seamanship on the museum level.Ship entrance includes also museum entrance where cafe, WC etc is available.
