National Maritime Museum

MaritimeHistoryClosed · Opens 10amFreeCutty Sark

Le National Maritime Museum se dresse au cœur du site classé au patrimoine mondial de l'UNESCO à Greenwich, et l'édifice à lui seul – un chef-d'œuvre palladien signé Christopher Wren et Nicholas Hawksmoor – vaut le détour. À l'intérieur, les galeries embrassent aussi bien la redingote de Nelson (avec l'impact de la balle) que l'exploration moderne de l'Arctique. Le planétarium est remarquable, et le parc mène au Royal Observatory, au Cutty Sark et au vestibule peint de l'Old Royal Naval College. De quoi passer une journée entière.
