Mare Island Historic Park Foundation Artifacts Museum

Mare Island Historic Park Foundation Artifacts Museum is at Railroad Ave. and 8th St. in Building 46, within Mare Island Historic Park. The museum, in a building that served as a pipe shop from 1855 to 1984, is easy to find—a 35-foot patrol boat with shark's teeth is parked in front. On display are artifacts from the Mare Island Naval Shipyard, including tools, historic radios, uniforms and photographs that underscore the shipyard's significance during World War II.
