History
The (until November 2013), oldest existing shipyard in Hamburg, was founded in 1635 by Carsten Sietasch, making it one of the oldest companies in the Hanseatic city. From the inception, the company was continuously owned by the family and was led to the beginning of 2009 in the ninth generation. In the first years of boats and cutters were built mainly of wood, later followed saver, Briggs and other types of ships. Beginning of the 20th century, production was increasingly changing from wood to steel. Since the 1950s, built on the shipyard ships in sectional construction.
After the shipyard ran into financial difficulties due to rising steel prices, the rapid decline in rates for container ships and incorrect calculation of costs, in early March 2009, a new management was the biggest creditor of the yard, HSH Nordbank, used. Thus, the shipyard was first performed by non-family since 1635.
The shipyard employed approximately 150 employees (2013 ), which produced different ship types to a work area of approximately 16 hectares.

These include heavy lift vessels, ferries, offshore vessels, etc., as well as individual segments for large cruise ships for the Meyer- Werft shipyard in Papenburg be prefabricated in Hamburg. The time being last container ship was completed in November 2009. The shipyard is also known by the type name of their ships. Thus, each generation of feeder vessels and other ships built more than once a type number ( for example, the types 110 and 137 ).

These were a ship of the type 178 Thereafter, the shipyard with the type 183 heavy lift vessels, which are among the most efficient in the world. The ships were ordered by the shipping company SAL, which so far all their ships on the Sietas shipyard has built.
