Roter Löwe - Elector of Brandenburg Galleon from 1597

The galleon Roter Löwe was built in the Netherlands in 1597 and was bought in 1601 by the Council of Königsberg on the account of the Great Elector of Brandenburg.
It was on service as a vedette-boat in Pillau from 1602 to 1605 under the command of Captain Peter Hinze. In October 1608, under the command of Captain Johann Fett, the galleon sailed with a shipment of wood to Lisbon, where it was sold with the cargo.

The size of Roter Löwe is unknown, but on the basis of a tonnage of 240 tons and the construction method of the time, it is possible to reconstruct a ship with a length of 28 metres from stem to stern and a width of about 8 metres.

The construction kit, equipped with all fittings in wood and metal and very good, easily readable drawings, guarantees the production of a model, which captivates above all by its detailed construction and a convincing impression of the state of the shipbuilding art at that time conveys. The individual parts are largely prefabricated, the keel and ribs have already been sawn out.
The model has a 2nd planking and has of course a German construction manual.
