This site is dedicated to the restoration and preservation of Commodore computers and peripherals.

Initially the site was designed just as an offline database to organize the collection, but now in this online version it is also available for the like-minded like yourself.
However, this database was originally not intended to be published, so it’s not a typical website, but enjoyable nonetheless 🙂

But, over time I shall transform it into a “real” website.
Just because… it’s fun… Consider it as a work in progress.

There’s tons of information available everywhere online, that’s why you won’t find any redundant and lengthy descriptions of each item on this site.
You found your way here, so you probably know that 1701 isn’t just the Enterprise 🙂
Here you will find just some basic technical data on the specific items in the collection and what has been done to them in the restoration or repair process.

In the “photos” section I will just throw everything from “behind the scenes” in no special order.

Upon personal invitation, the collection can be enjoyed in person in Mannheim-Sandhofen/Friesenheimer Insel, Germany.

So far, most items have been listed, at least in the text file [the scroll icon] which can be found at the top of each category. Items which have been fully restored/re-worked/refurbished have a link which will lead to the item page. The far-distant goal is to have everything listed someday, every spare IC or cable or spare part, every disk or book or manual. 2057 or so.

As of today, all Commodore PCs have been restored and cataloged, so that section is complete. Oh wait – two 60-IIIs are still pending.
And a 386sx-25. And a 386-33c. And a 486sx-25.
In the Amiga section, all Big Box Amigas are finished. Wait, except for two A3000Ts that aren’t quite ready yet. But they work. And then, of course, some 1200s. And two or three 600s. And all the 500s.
Also quite up-to-date is the literature section. The software section is 80% up-to-date.
Any item featuring high-quality photos and a detailed description is essentially finished and complete.

And now – Happy browsing.

 

In German:

Hier ist das Commodore Sanctuary, wo es jedes Commodore-Teil gut haben wird. Es wird gehegt und gepflegt und darf immer bei seinen Artgenossen sein.
Alle Commodoreriche müssen gerettet werden! ALLE!!!
