  Dunkerque - "Duchesse Anne" Postcard / 10x15cm

  The (or the) Duchess Anne, ex-Grossherzogin Elisabeth is the largest sailing ship, and the last square three-masted ship, preserved in France. Built in 1901, it is considered a masterpiece of naval architecture, notably due to the streamlined shape of its steel hull and the general balance of the ship, which provide a large capacity of living space. , while innovating in terms of security. Handed over to the French Navy as war compensation, the sailboat had several functions for several decades then saved from demolition thanks to a few enthusiasts. It has been classified as a historic monument since November 5, 1982. After a very long restoration aimed at returning it to its original state, and preserving its authenticity as a training ship, it became a museum ship which can be visited in the port of Dunkirk.
