The Ruhraak
|
Ruhraaken were simply constructed ships that were built for freight on the Ruhr. The dimensions of the Aaken were adapted to the former locks, the length was 34.5 m, width 4.50 m and height of the page 0,89m.
Ruhraaken were with their shallow draft at maximum loading capacity optimally adapted to the difficult water conditions of the Ruhr.
With the beginning of coal mining in the Ruhr area and the upswing of Ruhraaken began but in 1873 with the commissioning of RuhrtalBahn broke the boat ride together on the Ruhr.
The last Ruhraak was scrapped in 1912. Ruhraaken original have not been preserved and historical sources are rare since the Aaken were built without blueprints. Only the Hattinger hydraulic engineer Ludwig Henz it is thanks to the "The Ruhr river and its navigation conditions" detailed in his book about Ruhraaken.
This book is also noted that the Ruhr is navigated by 377 Ruhraaken in 1840.
