The Moshulu Docked in Philadelphia
Since the launching of the Moshulu in 1904, she has had a long and exciting career on the seas working the ports of Europe, South America, Australia, America and Africa. She was confiscated by the Americans in one war and by the Germans in the next. She has traveled around Cape Horn 54 times. She has hauled coal and coke, copper ore and nitrate, lumber and grain. In lesser days, she has served as a floating warehouse. In grander days, she won the last great grain race in 1939. Today, the Moshulu is the world’s largest four-masted sailing ship still afloat.
The Moshulu was purchased in 1968 in Naantale, Finland for restoration and conversion into a restaurant. In the fall of 1974, she was towed to Philadelphia and opened as a floating restaurant on Philadelphia's Penn's Landing.
the Moshulu has established itself as one of Philadelphia’s best restaurants with AAA Four Diamond ratings and many "best of" honors. Ownership takes great pride in bringing inspired hospitality with adventuresome food and outstanding service to their guests. The Moshulu provides private party options with private dining rooms as well as outdoor decks with unparalleled views of the city and waterfront.
