Description

König class battleships were famous vessels of the Kaiser German Navy of the WWI period. In total there were four sister ships: König, Großer Kurfürst, Markgraf and Kronprinz, which were all commissioned in 1914-1915. These battleships played a part in every encounter with the British Grand Fleet. In the battle of Jutland (May 31, 1916) they formed the 3rd Squadron of the German Fleet and damaged many British ships. In 1917 they participated in companies against Russian Navy in Moonsund. After the armistice was signed the König class battleships, along with the entire German Navy, were interned at Scapa Flow, where they were sunk on June 21, 1919.
