Lightship Museum, Esbjerg : ウィキペディア英語版 | Lightship Museum, Esbjerg The Lightship Museum ((デンマーク語:Museumsfyrskib)) in the harbour of Esbjerg in southern Denmark consists of a private museum open to the public on board the ''Horns Rev'' lightship. Dating from 1912, the ''Horns Rev'', also known as ''Motorfyrskibet Nr. I'', is the world's oldest and best preserved motor lightship. It houses an impressive exhibition of life and work on board. ==History== The world's largest and best preserved wooden lightship, ''Motorfyrskibet Nr. I'', was built at the Rasmus Møller shipyard in Fåborg. The contract was signed in June 1912 and the ship was delivered on schedule in August 1914. From the beginning it was intended to serve shipping from the Port of Esbjerg. Apart from short periods when it was stationed elsewhere or undergoing maintenance, it spent most of its working life off Esbjerg, first at Vyl Station or at Horns Rev Station where it last served in 1880. Both these positions lie west of Esbjerg in the North Sea.〔 Its final period of service was off the island of Møn (at Møn SE Station) from 1981 to 1988. In 1989, on the recommendation of the Ministry of Culture, it was acquired by ''Fonden til bevarelse af Motorfyrskib Nr.1'' (Foundation for the preservation of Motor Light Vessel No. 1). It opened as a museum in July 1990.
The positions the lightship served at Horns Rev and Vyl, which indicate one of the most dangerous reefs in Danish waters, have now been replaced by light buoys.
