What to expect
The Schifffahrtsmuseum im Ex-Wrack, also known as the Regensburg Museum of Danube Shipping, is a maritime museum located in Regensburg, Germany. The museum is situated on board two historic Danube ships: the paddle steamer Ruthof/Érsekcsanád and the motor train ship Freudenau. Visitors can explore the original rooms on board, including the boiler room, engine room, command and steering position, and ship's galley. The museum provides an insight into the history of navigation on the German-speaking Danube, with dioramas, models, and display boards. The Freudenau is also technically fully functional and can be chartered. The museum is a great place to visit with family and friends to learn about the history of shipping on the Danube
