Museo Naval Y Maritimo

A beautiful museum! You can buy the tickets online.

Truly extraordinary little museum. Steeped in history, well laid out, and highly informative. Loved it!!!

Very interesting historical museum. We met the director on the stairs who engaged in a delightful conversation with us. Limited English captions but hey we are in Chile.

Interesting maritime museum that provided me with more information about Chile. The price is 4,000 pesos for foreigners. There is much information about the formation of Chile as an independent country, the military, and the famous wars with Peru, the Spanish Empire, and Bolivia, as well as the golden age of the city of Valparaíso. It’s a must-see while you’re in Valparaiso.

This is a very interesting museum of the history of the Chilean navy and maritime activities dating back to the 1600s. Beautiful grounds and is still an active naval facility. Easiest to Uber here but we walked. The funicular nearby does not run any longer.

I really love this place and have visited three times in three years - I particularly liked this years commemoration of the evacuation of Dunkirk in the Second World War .... this was to show the participation of one of the “little ships” which too part in the evacuation and a few years afterwards became the bote salvavidas in Valparaíso- this museum is first class and graphically shows the development of naval warfare in Chile and has some amazing artefacts and exhibits including some from the Pacific war and battle of Iquique which saw the sacrifice of Capitan de Fregata Arturo Prat and his crew aboard CNS Esmeralda - I thoroughly recommend a visit

Kind staff & interesting insights into Chilean naval history. We took about 2 hours to see everything and might have taken even longer had time allowed.

Good place to spend 45 minutes to an hour. Exhibits are detailed and covered a wide range of topics

Pretty extensive museum, well organized with great Braille friendly displays, seated atop of the hills of Valparaíso with great view. They did a re-enactment a couple weeks ago that brought rave reviews. There's even a pirate ship for the kids to play on and a small cafe that serves enough to make a meal. Reasonably priced and well maintained. Restrooms were clean and staff was friendly. Good overview of national maritime accomplishments.
