Neuer Hafen, Harbor basin in Bremerhaven, Germany.
Neuer Hafen functions as a maritime center with two hinged bridges, connecting different sections of Bremerhaven through road and pedestrian pathways.
The harbor basin, completed in 1851, replaced the deteriorating Old Harbor lock and underwent major renovations between 1926 and 1928 to meet modern maritime requirements.
The basin stands as a testament to northern German maritime engineering, featuring three preserved brick machinery houses and electrical bridge mechanisms from the 1920s.
A new chamber lock, built in 2005, measures 50 meters in length and 14 meters in width, facilitating vessel movement according to tidal conditions.
On December 11, 1875, the harbor witnessed a tragic explosion of the steamer MOSEL, resulting in 81 deaths due to an insurance fraud attempt.
