The Roter Löwe 1597 model in 1:55 scale by Mamoli represents a historical Renaissance warship from the late 16th century. This category includes the complete model kit together with custom accessories designed for a more detailed and realistic appearance of the finished model.

The category contains block sets for standing and running rigging, yard tackles, model ship ropes and other accessories for a more accurate and realistic build of the Roter Löwe 1:55 model. Individual sets are based on historical plans and period references with emphasis on the authentic appearance of rigging used on European Renaissance warships of the late 16th century. The blocks feature the characteristic continental shape commonly used in Europe during this period and offer significantly more accurate historical detailing compared to the simplified parts typically included in standard kits.

Roter Löwe was among the important European warships of the late 16th century and represents the transition period between late medieval ship designs and early galleons. The ship was built in the Netherlands in 1597 and was later purchased for the Duchy of Prussia during the Polish–Swedish conflict. She served as a guard ship and flagship at the port of Pillau under the command of Admiral Georg von Eppingen. In 1608, the galleon sailed to Lisbon with a cargo of timber, where she was later sold. Her final fate remains unknown.
