Fantastic historic jail of Ushuaia, Argentina, now preserved as museum. The building is in excellent condition. One of the aisle is an art gallery. Very nice to visit. Same the rest of the "Museo Marítimo". Guided tours: one in the morning and one in the afternoon. Also by paying an extra fee you can have earphones which you can have a very good idea of the whole prison and its museum. Worth to visit!!

Wonderful use of space, one ticket good for all museums in the prison, excellent value. The Antarctic Museum was excellent, the Maritime displays and models were interesting. Fine Art gallery wings were captivating. Ticket is good for 48hrs so I went back to finish what I could not on the first round. Would visit again

We had a really fun morning in this museum. The model ships and associated stories we're fascinating as were the prison exhibits. We spent a couple of hours walking around reading everything and it held our interest well. The Antarctic and prisons of the world sections were pretty poorly organized, though, and some of the translations on the plaques was not great. Definitely recommend the museum to get a taste of the area's history.

Really good set of museums hosted in the old prison, which is just amazing. The ticket last two days. The museum has therefore a main museum explaining the history of the prison, but also a Maritime museum, Antartica museum and art museum. It has also an area which shows how the prison was and has a good souvenir shop.

Cool story and fully explained in English and Spanish with possibility of audio guide for 50ARpesos. Find it a bit out of date but interesting to know the history of the town!

A must seen to understand the history of the area. There is an option for 400 pesos of seeing all the museum's (there are together there). Once that you are there, it feels that you've travelled back in time 100 years (that was my feeling anyway). There is WiFi available (not too good but nice to have it) and also an overpriced gift shop inside. Nice staff and a free guide tour at 11 am and some other time I've forgotten. I recommend it.
