Southern
Newfoundland Seamen's Museum
|
| A memorial to the
many Newfoundland fishermen who lost their lives at sea, the museum is
one of the most popular tourist attractions on the Burin Peninsula. The
museum, (resembles the sails of a schooner), houses hundreds of artifacts
such as ship models, photographs and documents, all of which depict Grand
Bank's rich fishing history. Displayed on the exterior of the building is
Atlantic Canada's largest mural. Painted to reflect the yesteryears, this
mural provides the visitor with a picturesque glimpse of what they
are about to discover. |
