Western Australia Maritime Museum Description
The Western Australia Maritime Museum was built by convict labor in 1851 as a commissariat store and customs house. From 1879-90 it was a post office, and thereafter was restored to serve its present purpose. Its main attraction is the remains of the Dutch East Indiaman Batavia, which ran aground on the Abrolhos Islands in 1629. During the mutiny which followed the shipwreck 125 men were killed.
