Get Wrecked at the Museum
Friday October 26, 2007
If you walk west from Sydney city centre and cross into Darling Harbour, you'll find the Australian National Maritime Museum at the foot of the western end of Pyrmont Bridge.
Here you'll find Wrecked! Tragedy and the Southern Seas, an exhibition of the drama and tragedy of Australia's most devastating shipwrecks which will be on until January 28 in the new year.
The exhibition features more than 100 artefacts, some never before seen, salvaged from 19th and 20th century wrecks around the Australian coast to show the devastating impact they had in a time when shipping was central to daily life.
The Australian National Maritime Museum is open daily from 9.30am to 5pm (and until 6pm in January). Entry to the museum, including Wrecked! Tragedy and the Southern Seas exhibition, is free.
And being already at Darling Harbour, have a stickybeak into the area's other attractions.
