National Museum of Bermuda

The 25 Best Things to Do in Bermuda

"Heavily fortified and well-defended against potential invaders, Bermuda has some of the world’s most well-preserved stone fortresses—and the one that houses the National Museum of Bermuda is the largest. This massive west end fort is within the confines of the Royal Naval Dockyard, also home to Bermuda’s main cruise ship piers and a plethora of shops and restaurants. Today, it's most notably where you’ll find this unrivaled collection of nautical heritage, all housed in structures once built for the British Navy. Don't miss the Hall of History, a 1,000-square-foot mural by Bermudian painter Graham Foster, which depicts 500 years of Bermuda history." - Katherine Cusumano

"Fort St. Catherine and Museum The first fortification to occupy this spot on the northern tip of Bermuda was built from wood in 1612; it was replaced just two years later by a stone structure. A UNESCO World Heritage site, this fort was rebuilt and expanded several more times over the centuries as the needs of the Royal Navy changed and its presence on Bermuda increased. The final expansion in the 19th century included the addition of military housing and new gun positions. Today the site, which sits between St. Catherine Beach and Achilles Bay, includes a dry moat, numerous stone buildings, and a museum that features antique weapons and a gallery of dioramas that trace the fort’s various iterations."
