An extremely professional permanent exhibit detailing the sealing trade and those involved for the past few hundred years. Great pictures, videos, and stories about the life of a sealer, including heart breaking stories about those who perished during sealing hunts. There are also some massive wall-sized art pieces well worth checking out.
The museum has a series of paintings that depict sealers stranded on the ice. A very touching tribute to those lost.Also, history of the sealing fleet is well displayed. I've been there twice and would go again when nearby.
An outstanding place, gives great insight to industry and the perils of those who worked in it.
If history is your thing this is a whorthwhile stop. The tragedy of the working man in early Newfoundland history is remarkable
An excellent museum showing the dangerous and difficult life of those who went out on the sealing boats. I came away with a deep respect for these men and boys. Follow your time at the museum with a trip to the Sealers Memorial just down the road.
