The Maritime Museum Arklow is a treasure trove of shipbuilders models, plans and a unique collection of 8 paintings of Arklow Sailing Ships from the hand of the famous Pier Head Painter, Reuben Chappell. Established for over 30 years, it has recently moved to its new, larger home in the Bridgewater Centre, overlooking the Avoca river and within a short walk of Arklow Harbour. The museum itself has been described as “one of the most valuable collections of maritime artefacts in the state” and is a treasure trove containing items, many brought back from far flung corners of the globe, all documenting the towns long association with the sea.
