The first major exhibition on the history of consumer goods production opens its doors in April and focuses on the folding boats of the Mathias Thesen shipyard (MTW) in Wismar. With a long and unique tradition in ship and boat building, the exhibition presents the eventful history of this shipyard site since 1946. Entitled "Packsack, deadwood, hummingbird - 70 years of folding boats from Wismar", it offers unique insights into a special Wismar product that was manufactured between 1954 and 1990 as part of mass consumer goods production - the folding boat. More than 77,000 of them left the shipyard and are still very popular today.
