The Story

James Cook Museum in Cooktown occupies the former Convent of the Sisters of Mercy and explores the remarkable story of Cook's 1770 landfall on the Endeavour River — when the explorer spent 48 days at this site repairing his damaged ship — and the subsequent European history of this remote north Queensland town.
