Sea War Museum Jutland, Thyborøn, Central Denmark Region, Denmark

Sea War Museum Jutland, Thyborøn, Central Denmark Region, Denmark 

Sea War Museum Jutland marks the Armistice Day by introducing a new type of lists in the museum’s exhibition. At each history told in the museum, a small booklet with the names of the perished from each ship will be at the visitors’ disposal.

Based on a large collection of objects and a major historical archive and library a new private / independent maritime museum was created in the early summer of 2015, at an speciel location in Thyborøn.

Financing – 8.3 million Danish Kroner in funding is in place, and the work began in January 2015

The main focus of the museum is the Maritime Warfare in the North Sea during the First World War, in particular the “Battle of Jutland,” the greatest naval battle in history, but there is also room for other things, especially from the west coast of Jutland and the North Sea.
In connection with the museum a building will house a maritime archeology center with storage and conservation facility, including a research library and archive with study facilities.

In the museum’s permanent exhibition, dramatic stories from the Maritime Warfare are told and illustrated with hundreds of original objects.

The museum is supported financially and practically by the Maritime Historical Society
