DS Welheim

Sunk by a torpedo

Many German freighters served as supply ships for the Kriegsmarine during WWII, and Welheim was one of them. Built in 1939, It was equipped with a modern diesel engine.
On November 28th, 1944, Welheim was on her way to Ålesund, loaded with coal, when the Norwegian MTB-717 attacked her. After being hit by a torpedo, the 135-meter-long freighter was doomed and sank after a few hours.

Exciting dive

Starting from the bow, you will reach the port bridge wing at around 36 meters depth. In between, there are lots of exciting sights and If you go deeper at the forward part of the wreck, the huge cranes tower above you. Welheim lies on her port side at an 85° angle, and the bow is at 14 meters. The twin propellers can be found at 70 meters.

Huge winches

It was a modern ship for its age, so it didn’t have the vast masts and loading booms familiar on freighters built before WWII. It was also equipped with four giant cranes, fore and aft. The cranes are still standing on the deck, creating a beautiful silhouette.
