Se encuentra ubicado en el edificio de las Atarazanas Reales, en la fachada marítima de la ciudad y al pie de la montaña de Montjuïc, que es uno de los edificios de arte gótico civil más importantes y mejor conservados del mundo. Las Atarazanas fueron catalogadas, el 1976, como Monumento Histórico-Artístico.

Este equipamiento está gestionado por el Consorcio de las Atarazanas Reales y Museu Marítim de Barcelona, formado por el Ayuntamiento de Barcelona, la Diputación de Barcelona y la Autoridad Portuaria de Barcelona. El 2006, el Museu Marítim de Barcelona fue declarado Museo de Interés Nacional.

Actualmente, el edificio y la exposición de la colección del Museo se encuentran en proceso de renovación. Por un lado, se están llevando a cabo obras de restauración y mejora del edificio. Por otro lado, se está trabajando en la renovación de la museografía que supone un cambio más allá de la exposición, hacia un nuevo Museu Marítim."
