WebsiteThis museum has a good collection of paintings and uniforms related to the country's naval forces. Here you can also see the logbook belonging to Admiral Grau, a Peruvian naval hero who died in the historic late-19th century Battle of Angamos against the Chilean troops. Admission is free, and the museum is very near the Plaza Grau in Callao. For those who love war relics, the port of Callao is a good place to walk around. In addition to this museum, the Military History Museum at the Real Felipe Fortress is also worth a visit.
