The Fishing Heritage Centre

A fascinating insight into Grimsbys maritime history - Our heritage .

Navigate your way around Grimsbys Fishing Heritage Centre and discover what life was like for trawlermen in the 1950s. The sights, smells and sounds of the times follow visitors through the interactive displays. Its a must for all the Family who will realise the dangers and toils that faced our crew men of the day. Sign on as a crew member and experience sea sickness on our moving deck .

Discover how advances in navigation ensured our fishermen brought home the catch of the day. Haul a costume out of the dressing up box and get into the spirit of life as a fisherman in the 1950s. Feel the difference in temperature as you walk through the ice room and down to the boiler room. After you have navigated your way around the ships quarters , find your feet back on dry land by meandering through a recreated Grimsby street with tradional stores, a public house and of course the customary Fish & Chip shop .
