The Arklow Heritage Museum (formerly the Arklow Maritime Museum) opened in 1976 in the old technical school on Saint Marys Road in Arklow, County Wicklow. Its original purpose was to celebrate the town's rich seafaring heritage, described by the late maritime historian John de Courcy Ireland in a letter to the museum as "Ireland's Most Maritime Town". In 2009, the museum moved to its current location at the Bridgewater Shopping Centre. As the scope of the museum has evolved to cover the general history of Arklow, the museum renamed itself to the Arklow Heritage Museum as of 2025.
