Speicherstadtmuseum

	Photogallery of the museum Photogallery of the dockland warehouse district	Coffee, Tea and Co. A “hands-on” museum! Grippers, bales of rubber, coffee-sacks, sampling implements: The Speicherstadtmuseum is located on two floors of a red-brick warehouse that is over a hundred years old (in the authentic surroundings of the dockland warehouse district in the former free-port) where typical goods and tools collected from traditional warehouse companies and business premises of the warehouse district are exhibited. Historical photos and maps/plans illustrate (the social and economic) changes of over a century in this worldwide unique historical monument. Further topics are: coffee- and tea-trading as well as lighter-boating (supplying the warehouses with goods by transport on (cargo) barges). The engaging and interactive exhibition emphasises the skills and ingenuity of the work of warehousemen.
