Fun Facts

The SS Jeremiah O'Brien is a rare survivor of the 2,710 Liberty ships built during World War II, and it still sails today.

This historic ship was part of the Normandy landings on June 6, 1944, playing a crucial role in the Allied invasion.

In the 1970s, a dedicated group of volunteers worked tirelessly to restore the ship to its former glory, preserving a piece of maritime history.

Designated in 1986, the ship is recognized for its historical significance and contribution to the war effort.

Visitors can explore this floating museum at Fisherman's Wharf, where it serves as a testament to maritime history.

The SS Jeremiah O'Brien's engine room was featured in the 1997 film 'Titanic' due to its authentic period machinery.
