SRT-129

The SRT-129 is a fishing research vessel from the post-war era, now functioning as a museum ship in Kaliningrad. Inside, visitors can explore compartments such as cabins, galley, and engine room that display fishing equipment and navigation tools.

The vessel was built in the 1950s as a medium-sized fishing trawler used in North Atlantic fishing operations. It represents an important part of Soviet fishing industry during that era.

The ship displays the fishing heritage of the Kaliningrad region through exhibits of historical tools and equipment used by local fishermen. Visitors can see how people worked and lived aboard these vessels.

The museum ship is part of a larger museum collection and closes on Mondays. Access inside involves stairs and narrow passages, so wear comfortable shoes and be prepared for confined spaces.

The ship is one of few surviving fishing vessels from the Soviet post-war period, offering a rare glimpse into how the nation's fleet operated. Many visitors overlook that it documents an industrial fishing era that transformed ocean harvesting methods.
