    A concrete ship, or a ship made of concrete in about 1944. It was a tanker 90 meters long, 15 meters wide and 6.5 meters draft. The ship had no name, it was only marked with the symbol D-62. It carried synthetic gasoline from a factory in Police to Świnoujście. It was bombed on March 20, 1945 by the Soviet Air Force. Because it hindered river transport, it was raised, towed to its current location and sunk again.

      Concrete ship "Ulrich Finsterwalder" on Lake Dąbie

      Concrete ships were built mainly in the shipyard in Darłowo due to wartime restrictions on steel consumption. One of them, "Ulrich Finsterwalder" with a length of 90 meters, a width of 15 meters and a depth of 6.5 meters and a volume of 2947 BRT, made its first voyage in August 1944.

      It belonged to the Szczecin-based Lubberl & CO shipping company. It was a tanker that transported synthetic gasoline from the synthetic gasoline factory in Police to Świnoujście. It was bombed by the Soviet Air Force in the port of Szczecin on March 20, 1945. After the end of the war, the wreck was towed to Inoujście and sunk. At the end of the 1970s and the beginning of the 1980s, the wreck was raised at the A. Warski shipyard on the initiative of the diving club and its transport to Dąbie began, where it was to be used as a swimming pool. However, for technical reasons, the implementation of the idea was interrupted and the ship was transported again to Inoujście, where it was placed on a shallow area and became a tourist attraction. The last part of the journey is a bit adventurous, but at the end of the journey you will be rewarded.
