Treasures in the Museum Harbour

On your voyage of discovery along the banks of the Trave, you will pass the tranquil Museum Harbour on Untertrave. Lovingly restored, traditional sailing ships are lined up here like a row of pearls, and sometimes in pairs when times are busy. With their proud masts, burnished brass and wooden ship planks, they are real gems at the quay and genuine witnesses to another era of shipping. Each one of these historical sailing ships has its own story to tell. All are in perfect condition. The owners have restored their “old tubs” in years of painstaking work - a true labour of love.
