history
The time after commissioning until 1945
The Tetschen was the first ship with an electrical system. After commissioning as a smooth deck steamer , the ship ran for the Saxon-Bohemian Steamship Company (SBDG) until 1923 . After the cessation of business operations in 1923, the ship sailed for the Saxon-Bohemian Steamship Company (SBDA), which was newly founded in 1923 . The white painting of the ships, which was customary from 1926, earned it the name White Fleet .
In the years 1918-1919 the ship was at the end of the due to difficult economic conditions World War launched .
In the winter of 1926/27 a manual control winch was installed on the navigating bridge and in the winter of 1927/28 a steam control machine was installed . In the winter of 1928/29, the wheel arches were removed to make space for the installation of toilets. It was then that it was painted white.
In the summer of 1943, the Tetschen, like all steamers, was given a camouflage finish. From then on she was in the Loschwitz harbor . At the end of the Second World War , she was relocated to Albert Harbor and served here as a quartering ship for the Red Army .
The time after 1945
The SBDA was transferred to public ownership on February 1, 1947 and was given the name VEB Elbeschiffahrt Sachsen . From 1950 to 1957 it belonged to the VEB Deutsche Schiffahrts- und Umschlagszentrale (DSU). After its dissolution, the VEB Fahrgastschiffahrt und Reparaturwerft Dresden was established in 1957 and from 1967 the VEB Fahrgastschiffahrt Dresden .
On August 1, 1946, the ship was renamed Krippen . In 1947 the ship and the steam engine were overhauled and the wooden blades of the side wheel were replaced by iron blades. In 1963 the electrical system was renewed and in 1968 the steam control machine was replaced by the machine from the 1966 friendship . In 1975 the electrical system was converted to 220 volts and an electric heater was installed. In 1976 it was taken out of service due to a boiler damage.
In 1980 it was placed under a preservation order and thus escaped scrapping. In 1983 the ship was sold to the municipality of Kloschwitz . Since it was not roadworthy, it had to be towed. In 1986 she was put ashore here. The ship was to be converted into a restaurant or youth home. But that failed because of the financing and the ship was left to its own devices.
The time at the historic steamship shipping company Meißen
In 1991 Friedhelm Stolte from Uelzen bought the ship. It was launched again on December 12, 1991. On December 21st the cribs were brought ashore at the Laubegaster shipyard. The reconstruction of the ship began here. The reconstruction was interrupted for cost reasons and the ship was sold to the historic steamship shipping company Meißen on January 18th . This year it celebrated the 100th anniversary of service as the eighth ship. In December 1992 the ship was transferred to the Hitzler shipyard in Lauenburg . It was cut into three parts and barges into the fire shipyard to Oldenburg brought. In the shipyard it was built true to the original and received a new oil-fired boiler. The power of the steam engine was increased from 110 to 125 hp. On May 7, 1994, she went on tour again. She returned to Meissen via Bremen , Hanover and Magdeburg on her own . In Meissen it served as a floating restaurant. In between some trips were made. She was in Berlin in December 1994 , in Torgau in April 1995 , in Hamburg in June 1995 and back in Berlin in July 1995. On September 12th there was a near miss in Meissen. After casting off, the rudder system failed and the ship ran aground on the submerged Elbe meadows. A passing ČSPL tug pulled the ship back into deeper water.
In April 1996 she traveled to Hamburg with an exhibition of the new collection of the State Porcelain Manufactory Meißen worth one million Deutschmarks, and in May to Berlin. In July 1996 she was a guest on the Müggelsee . After a detour in Prague in August 1996, she went to Cologne and was deployed on the Neckar in October 1996 . On 19 April 1997, the chartered Cologne Duesseldorf German Rheinschiffahrt AG the Nativity for five years for tours in the city. The contract was terminated early in November 1999.
The time with the Saxon steamship
The Sächsische Dampfschiffahrtsgesellschaft bought the cribs for 1.8 million Deutschmarks and brought them back to Dresden, where they arrived on November 29, 1999. Here it was subjected to a general overhaul and the steam control engine on the rear deck was removed and stored in Laubegast. On August 17, 2000, the 5th Steam Festival took place again.
On March 1, 2001, she went to Roßlau . A new steam boiler was installed in the shipyard there . The boiler built by E. Huggler in 1993 had not proven itself. The new boiler is a single-flame tube boiler. After the acceptance on April 9, 2001, the cribs made their way back to Dresden to start their first timetable on April 18. In winter 2003/2004 a general overhaul of the steam engine was carried out in Roßlau and a new cylinder was installed. In May 2004, there was a machine failure that was repaired in the Laubegaster shipyard.
The steam engine
The steam engine is an oscillating low-pressure two-cylinder twin steam engine with injection condensation. Like the two-flame tube suitcase boiler , it was built by the Saxon Steamship and Mechanical Engineering Institute of the Austrian Northwest Steamship Company in Dresden. The original power was 110 hp. The steam boiler installed in 2001 has a steam pressure of 6.5 bar , built by Siempelkamp Nukleartechnik Dresden-Übigau with the serial no. 16-8373. Automatic oil firing has existed since 1994 .
