Wreck of a German trawler that was sunk by English cruisers during the First World War.

The ship is lying with its keel on the bottom and is quite overgrown with various plants and time has brought about the natural decomposition that occurs in the Kattegat. Both the port and starboard sides have fallen out and laid flat on the bottom. The bow and stern have fallen a bit towards the middle of the ship. There are many things at the site to look at. For example, some valves and bottles. In the stern you can still see the propeller sticking out of the bottom.

There is a lot of trawl over the wreck and a rich wildlife is present in the form of crabs and large cod.
