 What to see in the Museum
Salt ship display

ONE section of the salt ship (sadly, just a third) found in Nantwich is on display in our second gallery, complete with graphics and other ways to help you to enjoy seeing it.

   Call in to see it - and to SMELL the Nantwich mud in which the ship lay buried!

   Mirrors help you to see the salt ship from all angles, and there are photographs and other displays which tell the story of the rescue and preservation mission. There is also a  display of artefacts found with the salt ship.

 

THE story of the recovery of the salt ship can be found here. Pictures of the return of the salt ship  can be found on this page.

 

SALT SHIP VIDEO    On sale in the Museum Shop is a video called "Ship Ahoy - The Raising of the Nantwich Salt Ship" which tells the story of our top exhibit. See this page for more details of the video.
