The Mariners’ Museum and Park in Newport News, VA seeks to unite people. And that is why admission to the Museum is only $1 per person all year to engage as many people as possible, because through the world’s waters, through our shared maritime heritage, we are all mariners. Discover the USS Monitor Center, home of the iconic Civil War ironclad’s gun turret. View maritime art and handcrafted ship models, explore small craft from around the world, watch a 3D movie in the Explorers Theater, and more.
If you enjoy hiking or running there are also some beautiful trails nearby- it’s a lovely property!
