Yesterday and today in a bottle
More than 200 old and new ship in bottles in different bottle types from all around the world are being presented on long shelves here in the cellar of the Schulauer ferry-house.
Whether historical models, like Viking boats or the Gorch Fock, or tiny ships in bottles in light bulbs, which actually need a magnifying glass. All are meticulous dexterity of patient 'builder'.

How does the ship get into the bottle?
Of course, how to get the ship, into the bottle must be shown. Tools and building phases are part of the exhibition. Really, everything around the bottle vehicle is being presented.
