A historic nautical museum on a college campus.

Michael Brady

Part of a school, no museum staff to answer questions, set up in the hallway outside of classrooms, mostly just model ships.

David Willis

A hidden gem of Maritime history! Wish I could have spent more time exploring the museum; family was impatient.

Matt Wright

What a beautiful place! I'm looking at SUNY Maritime for my colleges!

I was in the American Blue Jackets. We were stationed there in the 60s. It was a Maritime College then. I was blessed to be a part of this organization. My best memory of this place was the huge cannon in the gym. We learned how to operate this weapon, under the command of Commander Harms. Best part of my life.

Went with a friend who attends the University there, I loved the museum and if you're interested in maritime or have served in the Navy you'll love it as well

Great place

Mats Lundeen

Would have been a 5 star rating but for the paucity of attention given to the Coast Artillery portion of the history of Fort Schuyler. And no mention of my favorite tune: "No Sleep Til Brooklyn".

Wonderful place with a great view

Love this college. They have a very concise mission and goal. If you have an interest in the military, engineering, naval studies you should definitely look into this college.

First visiting the museum while my husband had to report to his NOSC. There are so many things to see (lots of artifacts) and much to learn about the Maritime industry and ships around the world. Another great museum inside the Maritime campus.

You know, not much is known here for first time visitors. Although its connected to a college there are several reasons on why its one of my favorite museums. 1) The quiet peaceful atmosphere. The museum is insde the fort and connected to the library. No one will bother you in your visit. If you come during the semester, you'll see students studying and on the weekends, you might even see some renovating the exhibits. Don't be afraid to ask questions here. 2) The museum itself. All the artifacts placed here are full of maritime history and a lot of them are very old. Although not very interactive (aside from the occasional wheels and bells), it's heavily informative. As you walk throughout the museum you can feel the historical significance throughout the exhibits. 3) The area. Food-wise, nah. However the museum is is very close to the gigantic east river. You're free to walk around campus breath in the fresh air, jog, fish,bike, or even enjoy the sufferings of the cadets walking around. The campus is a beautiful place and really adds a certain feel to the museum

This museum is mainly composed of just models of ships. Some of them were interesting but they are all static displays. It would help if there were some more information that laid out exactly the history of the various ships and the maritime industry.

James Kafka

Wonderful museum for anyone interested in maritime history and artifacts. Dozens of large model boats and historical accounts. Peaceful and quiet on a weekday afternoon. Immerse yourself in maritime history. This place is wonderful.

Ed Hulick

They continue to get better. I've been visiting the museum for the last 20 years and it's well set up and in a beautiful setting. Must see to learn about our history as a Maritime Nation.

James McGee

Impressive collections.

SUNY Maritine College is one of the nation's top Maritine Colleges. An excellent museum exhibit.

Paul Radensky

Rich collection of models and maritime artifacts. Fascinating displays on the General Slocum, Morro Castle and Andrea Doria disasters. All located in 19th century Fort Schuyler. Thank you for making this great museum available.

Tony Rosa

Awesome! Staff is sper friendly.

Paul Mallalieu

So many amazing historic artifacts, and documents on display! This museum is a fun, free and interesting place for anybody interested in American history. Self guided tours, you could just walk through or spend hours taking the time to investigate everything the museum has on display.
