    The Ewer, which was extensively restored in 1991, was built in 1897 and sailed back and forth between Hamburg and Buxtehude as a cargo ship for many years. The flat-bottomed ship can

    Defy the ebb and flow of the tide with its fold-out leeboards and drive through fixed bridges thanks to its foldable mast. Today it is reminiscent of the hustle and bustle of the Hanseatic city, when such Ewer docked in front of the mill to have loaded grain ground.

      The Margareta is a Giek-Ewer with a berth in the Fleth in front of the Flethmühle in Buxtehude. The ship was launched on May 11, 1897.

        The ship and crew experienced turbulent times, both good and bad. The ship was repeatedly rebuilt to accommodate its various uses. In 1973, the barge was struck from the inland waterway vessel register because it was converted into a ferry dock and anchored on the Elbe island of Lühesand.

        Through the initiative of master carpenter Ewald Martens, the "Altstadt Buxtehude e.V." (Old Town Buxtehude Association) acquired the barge "Margareta." On May 25, 1987, towed by the barge "Plummslucker," the barge "Margareta" returned to its home port of Buxtehude after a 37-year absence.
