Wooden shipbuilding in Schülp Today, hardly anything reminds us that Schülp was once a place of wooden shipbuilding. At the present-day Timmerbarg was the shipyard of Christian Mohr. There, on September 29, 1779, the last known ship was completed – a Cojütschiff about 62 feet long, a typical cargo ship type of that time. The ship carpenter Hans Frahm played an important role, who was considered a particularly talented craftsman. After the completion of the ship, he was recommended by the shipyard owner Christian Mohr to Nübbel, where he later gained great renown. This recommendation also serves as an indication that the Schülp shipyard probably ceased its operations in the same year. A possible reason is considered to be the impending construction of the Kiel Canal (formerly Kaiser Wilhelm Canal), which cut Schülp off from the waterway. It is not recorded when the shipyard was founded. However, based on the existing expertise and the size of the last ship, it is assumed that it may have been established around 1759 and existed for about twenty years.

There's a narrow canal passage here, so the view from here is quite beautiful. Tip: Step onto the canal promenade at the top – it's even more impressive there.

My group passed by here on our "Seelust: Bike Tour to the Kiel Canal" tour. The tour and the entire cycling trip, of which it's a part, are fantastic. We made it through safely.
