HDMS Peder Skram, Military museum ship in Nyholm, Copenhagen, Denmark.
Description
HDMS Peder Skram is a frigate built in 1965 and now permanently moored at Nyhavn as a floating museum. The 112-meter vessel displays its full structure across multiple decks, showing engines, control systems, and military equipment from that era.
History
The frigate entered Royal Danish Navy service in 1966 and operated during the Cold War period. The vessel remained in active duty until 1990, conducting patrols with advanced weaponry designed for that era.
Culture
The ship displays the working spaces and quarters where sailors lived and worked, showing how the crew spent their days on board. Visitors can observe the routines and tasks that shaped life in the Royal Danish Navy during the late Cold War years.
Practical
The ship is open for visits during specific days and school holiday periods throughout the year. Comfortable shoes and flexibility are helpful since the narrow passages and low doorways require bending and careful stepping through the vessel's interior.
Did you know?
During a 1982 maintenance operation, a live Harpoon missile was accidentally launched from the ship into the waters nearby. The incident caused no injuries, but remains an unusual moment in the vessel's history.
