A semaphore is understood to mean an optical wind indicator, which in the times prior to the introduction of electronic communication represented a not unimportant means of information.

For the first system from 1883/84, the mast of the ship "Aurora", which was stranded in the Lower Elbe, was used, presumably for cost reasons. The second plant, which went into operation at the end of 1904, was built as a steel structure and has been preserved unchanged to this day.
