The Museo Storico Navale is a naval history museum located in the Castello district of Venice, near the Venetian Arsenal. The museum was established by the Regia Marina (the Italian Royal Navy) in 1919. Its collections include items relating to the naval and maritime history of Venice, and it has a large number of ship models and weapons on display. The two large anchors displayed at the front entrance are those of the Austro-Hungarian Viribus Unitis Class Battleships. Note: the nameplates at the base of each anchor are incorrect, they should be swapped. The Viribus Unitis anchor has a groove in each of the flukes. Tegetthoff's anchor did not have this feature. |
