Nautineum

The Nautineum in the Hanseatic city of Stralsund was opened in 1999 as a branch of the Stralsund Marine Museum on the island of Dänholm .

Exhibitions on the subjects of fisheries , marine research , whale research, hydrography and sea ​​waterways are shown on the two hectare exhibition grounds, both indoors and outdoors . Shipbuilding in Stralsund (at Volkswerft Stralsund ) as well as fishing on the Baltic Sea and the bay are examined intensively .

The exhibits include a restored Zeesenboot ( STR 9 ), but also the German underwater laboratory Helgoland and the first German underwater station BAH 1 . Germany's first manned research submersible Geo was also exhibited here from the mid-1990s until it was moved to the Ozeaneum in Stralsund .

Since 2012 the submersible Shark Observer Vehicle (SOV I) has been on permanent loan from the Sharkproject organization ; Scientists used him to observe the behavior of great white sharks off South Africa in 2006 and 2007 . This submersible as well as the BAH-1 were awarded for one year to the Westphalian State Museum in Münster from August 2016 .

The Nautineum is the only place in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania , which for the section of whales is allowed. Spectators are allowed. More than a thousand spectators came to the section of a fin whale found near Rügen in 2005 .

Due to a lack of visitors, the Nautineum has only been open on Tuesdays since spring 2016. Since 2017 the exhibition has been open daily from May to October from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
