Rickmer Rickmers

The Rickmer Rickmers is a three-masted steel cargo sailing ship, which today lies in the port of Hamburg near the St. Pauli Landungsbrücken as a museum and monument ship. Large, fully rigged 19th-century sailing ship open as a heritage tourist attraction & art museum.

Very cool attraction in Hamburg! You can spend a lot of time here and the entry ticket is cheap!

If you have an hour to kill, this is a great exhibition that takes you on a metaphorical journey onboard this historic boat. You can walk around the boat and access its various compartments and rooms, getting a glimpse of how life on the ship had been from the late 1890s till the 1950s. It’s a nicely done exhibition - recommended.

Nice historic ship with a museum and a restaurant. Has several floors and you can see two types of ancient ship engines in the engine room. Kids should love this place.

Great example of a tall ship with lots of personality and history. There’s a small gift shop where you purchase a ticket for admission. Lots of nooks and crannies to explore. Very well done presentations. Restaurant for snacks and maybe a meal. Depending on your level of interest count on one to three hours here.

Really great experience. With the Hamburg Card it costs only 4,20€ (normal price 5€) and you can see an accurate story about the ship and how it turned to be a museum. Absolutely worth taking a look and do the tour by yourself while reading and watching about the story. Beautiful! - and the view from above is stunning.

Great boat with a lot of history. You can do the museum and gift shop in an hour easily. We enjoyed our time and even found out that you can climb up the mast on certain days!

Rickmer Rickmers is a must go specially for families! On the harbor of Hamburg you can enjoy the beautiful view and at the same time learn a lot about shipping history in this museum! The space is well organized and there is also very friendly stuff.

We went here on a busy hot sunny day last week. We would have walked right past it, but my 8 year old daughter saw it and was capitivated. So we paid for a family ticket expecting to just walk up and down the deck, go to the loo then get off. How wrong! The ship is brimming with interesting things about itself, the original merchants who commissioned her, how the crew lived, lots of artefacts plus all the lower decks and cabins left how they would have been in days gone by. There is also a nice looking restaurant deep in the heart of the ship. We really enjoyed our 90 minutes on there and regard it as one of the highlights of my family's week in Hamburg
