Albert Lowe Museum
About This Museum
You'd never guess that this vibrant green Victorian house, tucked away on a quiet corner of Parliament Street, holds the entire soul of Green Turtle Cay. Stepping inside feels less like entering a museum and more like walking into your great-grandmother's impeccably kept home, if she had a thing for exquisite model ships and centuries-old family heirlooms. The air is thick with the scent of polished wood and history, telling stories of shipwrecks, loyalist settlers, and island life that you just don't get from a textbook. It’s an intimate, deeply personal experience that connects you directly to the heart of the Bahamas.
Collection Highlights
The star attractions are undoubtedly Albert Lowe's breathtakingly detailed model ships, each one a masterpiece of maritime craftsmanship. But don't miss the walls adorned with original paintings by Alton Lowe, which bring the island's colorful past to life in a different medium.
Visitor Information
It's a small place, so you won't need more than an hour, but it's an hour wonderfully spent. Just ring the bell if the door is closed—someone will happily let you in.
Architecture & Building
A beautifully restored Victorian home, painted a cheerful Bahamian green with crisp white trim and a welcoming front porch that simply begs for a rocking chair.
