Ulm Minster – Renovation work on the church Tower

INITIAL SITUATION: At Ulm Minster, a Gothic-style Protestant church in Ulm, continuous renovation work is carried out on the church tower. Completed in 1890, the 161.53-meter-high tower is the tallest church tower in the world. This impressive and iconic structure must be preserved for future generations. Various loads need to be moved at great heights in a delicate and sensitive environment. Everything must fit perfectly, as the crane must be securely positioned on different height levels within a very confined space.

SOLUTION: During maintenance and renovation work, materials and tools often need to be lifted and moved in hard-to-reach areas. These tasks pose unique challenges for everyone involved. The SCHILLING gantry cranes used in this project are easy and flexible to assemble and disassemble, adapting seamlessly to the varying levels of the support platforms. Additionally, the crane must be user-friendly and safely operable at high altitudes.

RESULT: Whether indoors or outdoors, SCHILLING gantry cranes provide invaluable assistance for all lifting tasks. Their mobility and flexibility ensure the best possible results, even in complex and large-scale projects.
