Axel Stenross Maritime Museum Inc
Visit a classic 'bloke's shed' museum. Axel Stenross made boats and the museum celebrates him and the rich maritime history of Port Lincoln.
This is one of South Australia's most distinctive museums. It is an historic house but it is not the grand home of a rich landowner. Finnish-born Axel Stenross lived humbly in his corrugated iron complex. You can see, for example, where some walls are made from tea chests. It is still an operating slip-yard where small craft are cleaned and painted in among a number of historic vessels now at their final home.
Axel's home is simple but the museum is 21st century in other ways. If you want to know about the many vessels which came to Port Lincoln, you can find what you need on touchscreens.
Smell the sea and listen to the waves lapping not far from where you stand in the museum.
