    When steam shipping on the Elbe was successfully operated by the Burmester brothers in 1861, appropriate repair options had to be created. In 1885, the Burmester brothers and Johann Georg Hitzler took on this task in a first shipyard. In the following year, the shipyard on the north bank of Lauenburg's harbor began building new ships.
