DSM and Royal Holloway University and Brunel University are organizing an online workshop on the Blue Economy.
Partners of the Northern Sea Maritime Museums Network will be hosted by the DSM on April 28 for a scientific exchange. The agenda also includes the conclusion of the workshop "A Civil Ocean - a Naval Space". We are looking forward to welcoming our international guests.
The participants of the SAW transfer research project "Digital Materialities" will discuss with guests from science and culture the aesthetic dimension of digitized material, its evidential function and its barriers.
The new special exhibition "ALWAYS FURTHER - The Hanseatic League in the North Atlantic" shows from March 24 testimonies of Bremen and Hamburg merchants who sailed to Shetland and Orkney already in the 16th century.
Almost 100 years after the German Atlantic Expedition with the research vessel METEOR I, the DSM takes over original recordings of the voyage as a donation from GEOMAR Helmholtz Centre for Ocean Research Kiel.
In the new "Archivalie des Monats" series, a new historical document is in the spotlight every four weeks. Spot on!
The Förderverein Deutsches Schiffahrtsmuseum e. V. is securing the future of Germany's oldest polar research vessel, the GRÖNLAND, with a large donation.

The cog is the centrepiece of the museum. Behind the wreck, which is more than 600 years old, lies a research thriller: discovered by chance in 1962 in the mud of the Weser, the complex salvage took three years. Afterwards, a team of restorers assembled the 2000 individual parts. To prevent the brittle oak wood from shrinking, the wreck floated in a tank filled with preservative for 18 years; in 1999 the liquid was drained and the construction removed. The cog remains an exciting object of research for scientists from all over the world and is considered the best-preserved trading ship of the Middle Ages

Pack - unpack - arrive: The 380,000 archival records and 60,000 museum objects are in for an eventful time. By the end of the year, they will be moved bit by bit into the new research depot, which is already an eye-catcher in the fishing harbour. The wooden plank façade is reminiscent of the cog. The DSM team is facing the mammoth task of moving all the exhibits, from the button collection to the lifeboat, into the new home and assigning them a suitable place in the 2300 square metre depot.
