The Museum of the Port of Seville has been exploring the city’s marine and port tradition for more than 20 years. It was set up with the aim of providing a wider perspective on one of the main business sectors of Andalusia: the Port of Seville.
Visitors can discover the history of the Port, its present and its future, under the guidance of the staff of the Port Authority.
The different rooms organize their exhibits around:
- The ancient origins of the Port, with the Phoenicians and Romans …
- Its splendour and consolidation, showing Seville’s role as the focus of trade with the Indies, the later modernization of the docks, with models of historic machinery, such as the Pedroso Crane (1842) or the Birmingham crane (early 20th century).
- The navigable channel through a journey upstream from the mouth of the Guadalquivir as far as the lock.
- Today’s Port and the future.
