Albert Dock

The Albert dock maritime museum

The Albert Dock is a truly stunning architectural triumph. Opened in 1846, it soon became a treasure house of precious cargoes from all over the world. Today redevelopment, costing in excess of £100 million, has transformed it into one of Liverpool's busiest and most cosmopolitan centres and a top heritage attraction. In fact, the Albert Dock is now the largest group of Grade 1 listed buildings in the UK and has collected many prestigious national and international awards. It contains excellent visitor attractions, including Tate Liverpool, Beatles Story and Merseyside Maritime Museum, plus shops, cafes, bars and restaurants.
