HNoMS Kong Sverre

HNoMS Kong Sverre

HNoMS Kong Sverre was built in 1860 as possibly the most advanced wooden naval ship built, but was obsolete by the time she was delivered. She was a steam and sail powered frigate. In 1932 an effort was made to raise 30,000 Norwegian kroner in order to preserve the ship, but it failed and she was eventually scrapped.
