Original Ship

The Danish frigate Jylland (launched 1860) is the world’s last surviving wooden-hulled, screw-propelled steam frigate. She fought at the Battle of Heligoland in 1864 and today is preserved as a museum ship in Ebeltoft, Denmark — a remarkable survivor from the transition between sail and steam.
