Perhaps one of Liverpool’s most crucial roles was in the 18th century, when its port, Albert Dock, was widely used for two centuries as an international trade and transport hub. Today the dock remains an iconic symbol of the city, and is surrounded by museums, pubs and shopping centres. Museums such as the Maritime Museum and the International Slavery Museum both portray well the rich history of the dock.
