Winter Attractions at Museumshafen Lübeck

These historical vessels provide a glimpse into the maritime past of the region and are a significant attraction for those interested in naval history.

The Four-Masted Barque Passat

Lübeck's largest museum ship, the four-masted barque Passat, is a significant attraction. It is located on the Priwall-Ufer in Lübeck-Travemünde. The Passat is a testament to the grandeur of historical sailing ships and offers a unique experience for visitors.

    The Museumshafen (Museum Harbor) in Lübeck, Germany, offers visitors a chance to explore maritime history through a collection of historic ships. This open-air museum showcases various types of vessels, including traditional sailing ships and fishing boats, which are moored along the Trave River. Visitors can observe these well-preserved ships from the shore, and sometimes even board some of them to get a closer look at their construction and features. The harbor's atmosphere is enhanced by the surrounding historic buildings of Lübeck's old town, providing a picturesque setting. While not a traditional indoor museum, the Museumshafen gives insight into the region's seafaring past and the importance of maritime trade to Lübeck's history. Some visitors note that the experience can be somewhat limited if you're unable to board the ships or if there are no special events happening. The lack of extensive information panels in multiple languages is also mentioned as a drawback by some international tourists. However, many appreciate the free access and the pleasant walk along the harbor, especially on a sunny day. The museum harbor is particularly enjoyable for those with an interest in maritime history or traditional ship design, but may not offer an extensive experience for those seeking a more comprehensive museum visit.
