The Ship Greeting Station Willkomm-Höft (Welcome Point) is a facility at the Schulauer Fährhaus (ferryhouse) in Wedel. Vessels over 1,000 gt (gross tonnage) heading upriver for or downriver from the Port of Hamburg are welcomed or bid farewell by hoisting the Hamburg flag and playing the national anthem of their country of registry between 8 am and 8 pm. Furthermore, words of greeting or farewell are broadcasted in the vessel’s native language.

Guests of the café and restaurant Schulauer Fährhaus are also provided with additional information about the ship, its cargo and route.
