USS Bowfin Submarine Museum & Park's mission is to restore and preserve the World War II submarine USS Bowfin (SS-287), and submarine-related artifacts on our grounds and in the Museum.
Visitors are given a walkman-style cassette player that narrates their submarine tour as they explore this historic WWII submarine to imagine what life on board must have been like for her 80-man crew.
Explore the intriguing world of submarines, both past and present at the 10,000 square foot Museum, which exhibits an impressive collection of submarine-related artifacts such as submarine weapon systems, photographs, paintings, battleflags, original recruiting posters, and detailed submarine models, all illustrating the history of the U.S. Submarine Service. Exhibits include a Poseidon C-3 missile that allows visitors to examine its inner workings. It is the only one of its kind to be on public display. |
