Museum has been undergoing a huge overhaul

A BIG step has been taken towards the reopening of the Maritime Museum in Hull.

Specialist fit-out contractors Marcon have now moved on site to begin the next stage of the iconic city centre landmark's redevelopment.

The Grade two listed building is being transformed into a modern visitor attraction and educational space, with the contractor tasked to bring Hull's maritime history to life through engaging storytelling, immersive experiences, and interactive displays.

Following the completion of the pre-construction stage, which included detailed design development, prototyping, and logistical planning, Marcon has now begun the physical fit-out of the museum's galleries.
