We do highly recommend the special exhibition Störtebeker and Company of the European Hansemuseum to you. It is a great honor for us to support the museum with a loan of our 15th century breech-loading swivel gun. The exhibition deals with the phenomenon of piracy the hanseatic league faced in the North and Baltic sea between the 14th and 16th century. It will last from September 29th 2019 to April 19th 2020.

Recently we were able to uncover the drawing of a 24 pounder cannon, signed by Albert Benningk in 1691. It was designed for the elector of Brandenburg. Benningk belonged to the best gun founders of his day and produced also the famous Pallas-Athene, a 24 pounder too, still existing in the Deutsches Historisches Museum in Berlin. The present drawing is a highly important find that will contribute to shed further light on the Oevre of Benningk and on the history of the courtly artillery of the electors of Brandenburg.
