Roedvig Shipmotor Museum and its collection

The Rødvig Ship Motor Museum, situated in the scenic town of Rødvig on Zealand, Denmark, is a unique technical museum that was established in 1987. It offers a fascinating insight into the history and development of ship engines, making it an interesting destination for both maritime enthusiasts and those curious about industrial history.

Collection of Ship Engines at the Museum

The museum boasts a collection of approximately 400 different engines. These engines, produced mostly by now defunct Danish factories, span the period from 1898 to 1974. This extensive collection provides a comprehensive overview of the evolution of ship engine technology over nearly a century.

Working Engines on Display

The museum's collection includes engines from over half of the former 140 Danish producers. Interestingly, some of these engines are in working order and can be run within the museum. This offers visitors a unique opportunity to see these historical engines in operation, adding a dynamic element to the museum experience.
