  • If in Manitowoc this is a must to see. This is a great experience especially if one was in the Navy.

  • I was very fortunate to share a special overnight trip inside the USS Cobia with my son. The program was a lot of fun and very informative. Our museum guides did a great job providing an interactive experience for our scout pack by putting them through a mild training exercise. Sleeping overnight inside the submarine was quite a unique experience; one that my son will never forget. Overall we learned a lot about life inside a WWII sub and came away with a new appreciation for the life of a Navy seaman.
  • My husband and I enjoyed the various displays and learned many new interesting facts from the state's history. We especially liked learning about the area's submarine building history. The building was very clean and easy to navigate. The museum gift shop also had many interesting items and souvenirs.
