Wikipedia description:

Peking is a steel-hulled four-masted barque. A so-called Flying P-Liner of the German company F. Laeisz, it was one of the last generation of cargo-carrying iron-hulled sailing ships used in the nitrate trade and wheat trade around Cape Horn. This ship was a museum ship in New York City from 1974, but was moved back to Germany in 2017. She has been a museum ship in Hamburg since September 2020.
