SRMHS Museum and Store
A short video of the front of the Saginaw River Marine Historical Society Museum and Store.
The Saginaw River Marine Historical Society Museum and Store is in the Bay City Town Center (formerly known as Bay City Mall), located next to Zales Jewelers. The artifacts on display in the SRMHS Museum tell the story of shipbuilding on the Saginaw River. While it is not a complete history of shipbuilding, we hope this will encourage visitors to learn more about the contributions of early Saginaw River shipbuilders. More than 650 commercial vessels were built on the Saginaw River and around the Saginaw Bay.
The hours of the SRMHS Museum and Store are subject to change because we are staffed by volunteers. Anyone planning to visit during scheduled hours (Saturdays 1:00 pm-4:00 pm and Sundays 1:00 pm-4:00 pm) can confirm we are open by calling Don Morin (SRMHS president) at our phone number: 989-545-9425. You can also call Don to make an appointment to visit at other times.
