Dive into the fascinating history of Australia’s oldest shipwrecks.

Internationally recognised for its contributions to maritime archaeology and shipwreck conservation, journey through the Museum’s galleries to learn about Western Australia’s treacherous coast, first European encounters, the riches of maritime trade and one of the deadliest mutinies in known history.

Located on Whadjuk Nyoongar land, the Museum is housed inside Fremantle’s historic Commissariat buildings. Originally built to store the food, clothing and building supplies of the Swan River colony, these buildings are among the first Western Australian sites built using convict labour.
