Sounds OF Shipwrecks

The seabed between Hou on the northern tip of Langeland and Lundeborg on the coast of Funen holds many stories about shipwrecks and Stone Age settlements. What is unique is that underwater, all organic material, whether stone, wood, bones or remains, is often well preserved for a long time. Marine archaeologist Sigurd Bohr from Langeland Museum tells of the 17th century, after the Reformation, when brick and tile production flourished on Funen and Langeland and freight was transported on barges and cargo ships. And where things sometimes went wrong. As was the case at Lundeborg in the mid-1600s. The ship was loaded with 12,000 bricks when it sank in heavy weather. Only 300 metres from the coast, in 3 metres of water. This podcast is co-funded by the EU.
