French ship Commerce de Paris (1806)

The "Commerce de Paris" was a 110-gun ship of the line of the French Navy, lead ship of her class.

She was offered to the French Republic by a subscription of merchants from Paris on 27 May 1803 and started as "Ville de Paris". She was renamed "Commerce de Paris" on 21 November 1804.

She was decommissioned in 1814. From 1822 to 1825, she was razeed by one battery. In 1830, she was renamed "Commerce", then "Borda" in 1839. She was used as a school ship from 1840. Renamed "Vulcain" in 1863, she was eventually scrapped in 1885.
