Russian Sub Museum

The Russian Sub Museum, owned by the USS Saratoga Museum Foundation, is located at Collier Point Park, off of Allens Avenue. It consists of a 300-foot Juliett-class 484 submarine, once armed with nuclear missiles, docked adjacent to the park. The land is owned by New England Power and Narragansett Electric, who commissioned the Cardi Corporation to build the park. The submarine was acquired by the Museum Foundation in March 2002 and was refurbished for public visitors until its opening in August of the same year.
