The Client
The German Port Museum is a museum in Hamburg dedicated to the history and significance of German seaports and shipping. It was founded to document and present the maritime history and the economic and cultural importance of the ports for Germany. The museum focuses in particular on the port of Hamburg, which is one of the largest and most important ports in Europe.
Aims and themes of the museum:
- History of ports: the development of German ports from early times to the present, with a particular focus on the Port of Hamburg.
- Shipping and logistics: Presentation of technical developments in shipping and port logistics, such as the use of containers and modern handling techniques.
- Trade and economy: The role of the ports in international trade and their economic importance for Germany.
- Social history: The lives of port workers, seafarers and the people who worked in and around the ports.
A central element of the German Port Museum is the branch in the Hansa Port with the historic general cargo freighter MS Bleichen, an example of cargo ship construction in the 1950s.
The museum is part of the Hamburg Historical Museums Foundation, which also runs other well-known museums in the city such as the Museum of Hamburg History.
What ist the Problem?
“The museum visitors, including school groups, older people, and tourists, have the problem of limited information and lack of accessibility (due to language and interactivity issues) when visiting various exhibition areas, so our solution should deliver a more engaging, multilingual, and interactive experience.”
