Tips
Remembrance of the once heavy loading crane with a lifting capacity of 30,000kg from the Agrippina shipyard.
💪🏼Built in 1897; Operated by 6 men of muscle power...it got an electric operation in 1906.
The "Dicke Pitter" cathedral bell, weighing 24 tons, was unloaded with it upon delivery in 1924.
Old heavy piece of industrial history.translated by
