Horatio Nelson Museum

This small museum trains its focus on Horatio Nelson, the British naval commander who married a local widow, Fanny Nisbet, in 1787 and met his demise leading the victorious British at the Battle of Trafalgar in 1805. An endearing collection of maps, paintings, documents, busts, vases and other memorabilia help tell his story.
