Door County Maritime Museum: Enjoy tales of bold ship captains, brave seaman, innovative shipbuilders, rugged fishermen, stalwart lighthouse keepers and much, much more--sea stories abound! The Door County Maritime Museum offers three unique visitor experiences. Its year-round 20,000 square foot flagship museum is located between the dowtown bridges on Sturgeon Bay's workking waterfront. It features four large exhibit galleries and the immaculately restored seagoing tugboat John Purves built in 1919. The iconic Cana Island Lighthouse, located Baileys Harbor, is a Door County treasure. The northern museum is a hidden gem featuring the classic wooden fish tug Hope. It is located in the historic fishing village of Gills Rock alongside the infamous "Death's Door" passage. Both are open seasonally.

"Simply the best and tastiest cheese around. So many varieties, if you can't fine one to suit your taste buds, you are too picky. Family run business offering everything cheese you need and don't need."
"The DC Maritime Museum is just a fun place to visit. We've toured the museum a few times, though we often stop just to check out the gift shop. They have a nice selection of books, including local history. They also have a nice selection of home decor and fun things for little ones. "
"I love history and lighthouses, so this is a great place to visit (even if the weather is bad!)! I had friends visiting from Germany so this was a great place to stop. They do have the Fresnel light from Sherwood Point Lighthouse in the museum (fourth order) and are always great to see up close. It'..."s hard to believe that these were shipped from France in the late 1800's and that how little lumens it required to send out the light. There is a demonstration that shows the young student how the light is refracted to warn the sailors.
