A great museum telling the history of the whaling industry - first dominated by the US and then spread to the Azores. Great exhibition. Watch a short movie.

Tolles Museum, perfekter Umfang und leicht verständlich. Für jeden gut aufbereitet und mit viel ausstellungsmaterial visuell unterstützt. Außerdem ist es barrierefrei mit Treppenlifts. Die toll gestalteten Infotafeln sind auf portugiesisch und englisch, als QR-Code gibt es weitere Sprachen. Zeitumfang sind ca. 45 Minuten.

Na ilha do Faial, nos Açores, está o Museu da Fábrica da Baleia de Porto Pim, muito perto do centro da cidade da Horta.

Esta fábrica surgiu em plena 2° Guerra Mundial, no ano de 1942 e a empresa que a detinha chamava-se SIMAL (Sociedade Industrial Marítima Açoriana Lda) que fazia o aproveitamento integral das baleias mas também de outras espécies marinhas e o comércio dos produtos que daí vinham. Em 1974, quando a indústria baleeira começou a entrar em declínio, a fábrica encerrou e foi então comprada pelo Governo Regional dos Açores em 1980.
