Captain Cook Memorial Museum - MAP


The 'Cook Museum' is in the 17th century house on the harbourside at Whitby where the young James Cook came to serve his apprenticeship. The Museum celebrates Cook's achievements, and exhibits ship models and maps, original letters in Cook’s own hand and much authentic material from the eighteenth century artifacts from the Voyages, paintings and prints by the artists who sailed with him.

Downstairs there are period rooms furnished much as they were in Cook’s time. Upstairs the rooms are organized, Whitby, London, Voyages, Scientists, Artists, and at the very top of the house the Attic where Cook and his fellow apprentices slept when not at sea.
