Great Guns! Cannons in the Collection ....A Virtual Exhibit

The Mel Fisher Maritime Museum has a collection which spans four centuries of colonization and maritime enterprise in the Americas.  Second only to the treasure from the Spanish Treasure galleons of the 17th and 18th centuries, the objects most evocative of past glories are the museum’s fine collection of naval artillery.

Let’s embark on a virtual tour of these guns, and see what they can tell us about our maritime heritage.  Come and experience the power and majesty of the Great Guns!
