The Great Lakes Shipwreck Museum is located at Whitefish Point. Fitting, because the area is know as the "Graveyard of Ships," more vessels have wrecked in the area than in any other part of Lake Superior. The Great Lakes Shipwreck Museum is the only museum "dedicated to the perils of maritime transport on the Great Lakes." The Museums includes the Whitefish Point Lighthouse, as well as pieces salvaged from the Edmund Fitzgerald. The museum's gallery recreates dramatic shipwreck legends. "Artifacts and exhibits tell stories of sailors and ships who braved the waters of Superior and those who were lost to her menacing waves."
