The Naval Museum is housed in a building at the entrance to Frika Fort. It was established in 1973 in order to commemorate Greek and Cretan maritime traditions. The exhibits are ship models, several ship instruments and devices, paintings, heilooms, items salvaged from the bottom of the sea, shells, pictures and so on. They are classified chronologically. Today it operates under the auspices of the Municipality of Hania and the Naval Base of Crete.
