Newhaven Local & Maritime Museum

Travel Information and nearby accommodation

A project of the Newhaven Historical Society, this museum covers the rich history of the port and town of Newhaven. Exhibits include historic photographs, maps, and artwork. There is a special display on the Newhaven Lifeboat, but the real highlight of the museum is the exhibit on HMS Forward; the wartime network of tunnels that were used in the planning and execution of the Dieppe Raid and the Normandy landings.

There is also a collection of local history and genealogical material useful for those wishing to trace their family history. A small admission fee applies.
