About the museum

The Museum is located in Grytviken, a former whaling station on the sub-Antarctic island of South Georgia.

The collections are owned by the Government of South Georgia & the South Sandwich Islands (GSGSSI), a British Overseas Territory in the Southern Atlantic Ocean.

The museum is managed and operated by the charity South Georgia Heritage Trust (SGHT) which is based in Dundee, Scotland.

Worsley’s Almanac

This nautical almanac was used by Captain Frank Worsley in 1916 to navigate the lifeboat James Caird from Elephant Island to South Georgia to rescue the shipwrecked crew of Endurance.
