Newhaven Heritage Museum

Newhaven Harbour

Newhaven is an old fishing community on the coast of the Firth of Forth. It was also a dockyard, and between 1507 and 1511 built the "Great Michael", the greatest ship of the time. This museum preserves that heritage through reconstructed sets, historic objects and photographs, and first-hand accounts of people's lives. Listen to the voices of Newhaven people, hear their songs, and watch a video on the development of the community. Learn about their trade, customs and superstitions, famous choirs and the Society of Free Fishermen.
