The Naval Museum of Uruguay (Spanish: Museo Naval de Uruguay) is located in the Rambla de Gaulle s/n, Pocitos neighbourhood, Montevideo, Uruguay.

It hosts a number of historical cannons, as well as models, photographs and memorabilia of the Uruguayan Navy. It also has a library and an archive.[1] It is located between Playa de los Pocitos and Puerto del Buceo.[2]

Remodeling

Since 2011, the museum has begun to apply signs with Braille writing on several of the pieces. A wooden and metal path was also built to guide the blind during their visit.[3]
