    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.

      Next to the Old Love is the semaphore - not a modern work of art, but a signal from the year 1884. The semaphore, whose name comes from the Greek and means "sign bearer", showed the passing ships wind strength and wind direction, namely the islands Borkum and Heligoland.

        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.
