This restaurant is located in the quarter of Kleinhüningen close to the freight port. The major part of the local population had traditionally occupations on the river. The murals on the restaurant Schiff (Ship) shows four of them. A stake pilot on a Weidling (a traditional boat type, a bit similar to the punt in Southern England), a fisherman, a ferryman on a reactive cable ferry and a steerman on a freight ship.
