Dear collectors,
we wish you a Merry Christmas and some nice models under the tree. Today I've finally uploaded the next update to the website. It doesn't contain everything I wanted, but nontheless this gives you more than 1564 new pictures closing 812 gaps where models previously didn't have a picture. 382 models have been added to the website.

best regards
Oliver

The latest 350 models

What is Sammelhafen?

Sammelhafen is a Database of model ships in the scale of 1:1250 und 1:1200. The earliest models listed are almost 100 years old. And the hobby is thriving to this day. It is a truly fascinating hobby with a very nice community!
As of June 2021 we have more than 31.000 models listed and more than 25.000 pictures. More than 15.300 entries feature at least one picture for easy identification.

If you did not know: the big blue 'latest pictures' is a link to this site where you can always find the latest added pictures in chronological order.

Even after seven years the website is still far from finished. And while we've quenched a lot of errors so far I'd still expect expect a few more here and there. If you happen to come across one, please use the 'report error' function you can find in the details section of an entry just above the big picture. You're helping a lot if you do.

For suggestions and criticism or if you simply want to reach out to me: oliver@sammelhafen.de
Please note that I'm notoriously bad at writing mails and also happen to work on the website a lot in a short amount of time before going back to my other duties. So I tend to pile up my ToDo and E-Mail folder for Sammelhafen and usually get to answer my mails shortly after an update. This is especially true for sendings of errors, lists, news or pictures that don't require an immediate answer.

On this page you'll find an overview of every series and manufacturer who is currently in our database. If you want to narrow down your search by using a more precise tool, please try our search function. The link is in the top navigation. Marked in green are those who are still active. Note that some only produce new models while others recast their older creations.
