Gera

The FMS Gera extends 66 meters in length and contains original equipment from the bridge to the engine room, displaying maritime technology from the 1960s.

Constructed in 1959 at Peene Shipyard in Wolgast, this side trawler operated under the Rostock Fishing Combine until its decommissioning in 1990.

The vessel presents the daily routines of fishermen through preserved living quarters, work spaces, and equipment used during deep-sea fishing operations.

Visitors can explore 17 multimedia stations throughout the ship using their smartphones or borrowed tablets to learn about maritime operations and fishing methods.

The galley maintains its original configuration with three cooking stations where the chef and two assistants prepared meals for the entire crew.
