Muttschiff = peat barge of the early settlers
The Muttschiff served the Papenburg settlers for centuries as a means of transport for the
mined peat and as a watercraft on the canals and the Ems. This ship, similar to the Dutch Tjalk, was a typical flat-bottomed ship. The shallow water depth in the canals running through the city of Papenburg alone meant that the Muttschiffs needed a shallow draft, i.e. a ship without a beam keel.
