The Bartlett Maritime Research Centre ….

The Bartlett Maritime Research Centre is located in the National Maritime Museum Cornwall, in Falmouth, Cornwall. It is staffed entirely by volunteers who carry out their own research and are happy to help you with yours if they can.

At the heart of the Centre is a Library of over 20,000 reference books and a bulging archive of original material to do with the sea, boats and the maritime history of Cornwall.

The Centre is open from 10:00-17:00 on five days a week (Tuesday-Saturday) and is free to all.

Christmas 2024: We will be closed for Christmas from Monday 23rd December 2024, re-opening for three days Thursday 2nd - Saturday 4th January. We will then be shutting again while the Museum carries out major works, re-opening on Saturday 15th February.
