Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Bus shot.....

Wooden treadmill crane - For unloading heavy cargo - like barrels of wine or blocks of stone - from ships, treadmill cranes were used. Smaller cargo was carried off the ship. This is a reconstruction of such a treadmill crane. It was built for Bruges 2002, when the city was the cultural capital of Europe. The crane is still on display in the Wulpenstraat near the ringroad.

In the 16th century two such cranes were in use in Bruges. Two to four men were used to operate the crane, depending on the load. The crane could lift up to a ton.
