Maritime Museum of Litochoro

The exhibits are either collected from the households of the former seafarers or were donated by shipowners or the navy.

Although the museum is dedicated to merchant shipping, the tour begins with a model of a torpedo boat, which, in 1912, sank a Turkish warship in front of the port of Thessaloniki.

Old pictures, some almost 100 years old, show proud families in the shipyard who supervise the construction of their ship.

Although displaced by modern technology such as GPS, these devices are still mandatory on board.

Furthermore, nautical charts and logarithm tables are needed to determine the exact position of the ship.
