Lake Superior Maritime Visitor Center

053
    The center has displays about the Great Lakes and the busy port city of Duluth.  A popular activity is watching the huge 1,000 ‘ freighter ships pass through the canal. Most are “lakers”, hauling iron ore, coal, and stone between ports on four of the Great Lakes.

  Both floors of the museum are accessible. Entering on the second floor by using the exterior ramp is best because the ground level entrance way has a steep ramp down to the first level. An elevator is available to access both floors.

   A parking lot which allows RVs is located at Canal Park just a short distance from the museum. The entrance to the lot is narrow and an immediate turn is required so large RVs might not be able to use it.  Museum
