Located in the Erie Maritime Museum on the Bayfront
is a replica of the
U.S. Brig Niagra, a ship which
played a pivotal role in the Battle of Lake Erie and
the victory of Commodore Oliver Hazard Perry during
the War of 1812.

In 1820, the original was sunk in Misery Bay on
Presque Isle, where she sat until finally raised in
1913.  The ship began restoration that wasn't
finished until 1963.  In 1988, more extensive work
was done on the ship, nearly rebuilding it from the ground up to return it to
sailing condition and it's former glory.  Today, the U.S. Brig Niagra can either
be found at the Erie Maritime Museum, or at one of the many destinations
she sails to.
