The Matthew of Bristol

The Matthew

The Matthew of Bristol is a modern reconstruction of the original Matthew that John Cabot sailed to Newfoundland in 1497. A much-loved part of Bristol’s maritime heritage, the ship is open to the public and has a busy schedule of public boat trips, private hire trips, filming and festival work. The Matthew is a popular attraction and is situated next to the M-Shed which discovered at the end of the Victoria Street walk.
