Opened to the public in 1968, it consists of a saltwater aquarium for native species and a "sealarium" (exhibit for seals) as well as indoor and outdoor exhibitions on Danish fisheries and shipping.[1][2] HistoryThe idea of creating a Danish fisheries museum with an aquarium came from the journalist Hakon Mielche in 1941. In 1962, a planning committee was formed in Esbjerg which soon led to the collection of artefacts.[3] Building began in 1966, allowing the privately owned institution to be opened to the public in 1968. From the start, the museum contained a fisheries exhibition and a saltwater aquarium. A sealarium was added in 1976. In 1989 a start was made on an outdoor exhibition which was later extended. The museum established a research unit in 1994, followed in 2000 by the Centre for Maritime and Regional Studies (Center for Maritime og Regionale Studier), a cooperative venture with the University of Southern Denmark. In 1999, a five-storey museum building with almost {{convert|2000|m2|abbr=on}} of floor space was inaugurated, housing a new permanent exhibition, a library, storage rooms, an archive and offices. Provision was also made for temporary exhibitions while the educational facilities were modernized. A new saltwater aquarium was installed in 2002 and a new "sealarium" (exhibit for seals) in 2013.[2] The largest aquarium tank contains {{convert|100000|l|gal|abbr=on}} saltwater and is home to species such as cod, halibut, conger eel, gilthead seabream, greater spotted dogfish and thornback ray,[4] while the sealarium contains {{convert|500000|l|gal|abbr=on}} and is home to grey seal and harbour seal.[5] By 2007, the museum had welcomed six million visitors since its opening but thereafter, as a result of a considerable decrease in the number of Germans visiting Denmark, it experienced a few difficult years. Today, however, the museum is once again in good stead thanks to the enthusiasm of its staff and the support of Esbjerg Municipality.[3] Sphere of interestThe museum addresses the areas of Danish fisheries, offshore activities, maritime environment, maritime mammels, shipping in the west of Jutland and the natural history of the Wadden Sea.[2] Opening hoursLocated at No. 2 Tarphagevej, some 4 km northwest of the centre of Esbjerg, the museum is open everyday from 10 am to 4 pm with extensions to 5 or 6 pm as daylight permits.[1] References1. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://www.visitdenmark.com/denmark/fisheries-and-maritime-museum---esbjerg-gdk610306|title=Fisheries and Maritime Museum - Esbjerg|publisher=Visit Denmark|accessdate=26 January 2014 |language=}} 2. ^1 2 {{cite web|url=http://www.fimus.dk/fakta-om-museet|title=Status & Museets historie|publisher=Fiskeri- og Søfartsmuseet/Saltvandsakvariet|accessdate= |language=Danish}} 3. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://www.fimus.dk/images/PDF/historien.pdf|title=Et museum i stadig bevægelse|author=Morten Hahn-Pedersen|publisher=Fiskeri- og Søfartsmuseet|accessdate=26 January 2014 |language=Danish}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.fimus.dk/en/aquarium/|title=Saltwater aquarium|publisher=Fiskeri- og Søfartsmuseet|accessdate=24 December 2016}} 5. ^{{cite web|url=http://ballumby.net/Tourism/Show?category=36|title=Esbjerg Fiskeri & Søfartsmuseum|publisher=BallumBy.net|language=Danish|accessdate=24 December 2016}} External links
