Buque Museo Corbeta Uruguay (Uruguay Corvette Ship Museum)
Buque Museo Corbeta Uruguay (Uruguay Corvette Ship Museum) Review
The oldest of the Argentine fleet, bought from England in 1874, the ship has been around the world several times and was used in the nation's Antarctic campaigns at the turn of the 20th century. You can see what the captain's cabin and officers' mess looked like at that time; there are also displays of artifacts rescued from shipwrecks. A stroll around the decks affords views of the boat's structure and of Puerto Madero.
