Overview

This book examines the 2025 archaeological discovery of the Danish warship Dannebrog, sunk in Copenhagen Harbor during the Battle of Copenhagen on 2 April 1801. Structured around the geopolitical imperatives of the Napoleonic era, the tactical conduct of the engagement under Vice Admiral Horatio Nelson, the catastrophic loss of the vessel, and the subsequent underwater investigation prompted by the Lynetteholm infrastructure project, the book integrates archival records with primary excavation data recovered by the Danish Viking Ship Museum. It examines ship design and armament, battle chronology, casualty records, and the scientific documentation of cannonballs, personal effects, and human remains preserved at a depth of 15 meters.
