For more than a century, Algonac has played a leading role in shipbuilding, from sailing cargo ships to large pleasure craft, racing boats, and World War II landing craft.

The Gothic Revival board-and-batten building stood on the corner of Green and Michigan Streets. This Neo-Gothic structure was dedicated on May 7, 1916.

This Greek Revival home was built by Charles H. Beers around 1849. Since then it’s served as a home and office, public library, and later a health department and township office.

The Maritime Museum has several displays exploring maritime history in the area.
