The German Seaport Museum is dedicated to this culture.It shows everyday life on board with the dangers to which the skippers were exposed, but also the opportunities to get to know the world. The living culture of the captain's families with their sense of status and their maritime lifestyle comes to life, interwoven with their stories.The museum appeals to all the senses, with many interactive and multimedia offers as well as a water learning station available for our guests.Four historic buildings, a museum harbor with traditional sailing ships and the museum cutter GEBRÜDER invite you to travel back in time to the heyday of merchant shipping under sail.With the redesign, we have also significantly improved the visitor service.
