19th Century Port Crane

Makarovskaya St., 4, Saint Petersburg, Russia, 197760

On the western shore of the pond, an old 19th-century port crane has been preserved. With the help of such a crane, the masts were removed from the ships after they were taken out for winter storage to be kept on land. In the spring, before the start of navigation, the same crane was used to reinstall the masts back onto the ships.
