Set inside the magnificent 13th-century Royal Shipyards (Drassanes Reials), this is one of the world's great maritime museums and the building alone justifies the visit. The centrepiece is a full-scale replica of the 16th-century royal galley from the Battle of Lepanto. Exhibits cover navigation, trade, and seafaring culture across the Mediterranean. Caveat: some sections can feel dated in presentation compared to more modern museums.
