Bagger 1473 is a bucket-wheel excavator left abandoned in a field in the municipality of Schipkau in Germany.^[1]^[2]

Misidentification

When Bagger 1473 became popular in the urban exploration community, the link was quickly made to Bagger 258 because of markings found on the information plate. Bagger 258, however, was a bucket-wheel excavator at work at the Tagebau Garzweiler mine, about 650 km from Bagger 1473's location.

Operational life

In its operational life the excavator was used in the Tagebau Meuro mine from 1965 to 2002.

Scrapping

In early 2019 it was announced that the bucket wheel excavator was to be scrapped. This decision of the municipalities is mainly due to further dilapidation and vandalism. Only parts of the excavator, such as the wheel, are to be preserved.
