Bismarck – Historical Background

The Bismarck battleship was one of the most iconic vessels of the Kriegsmarine. It entered service in 1940 and took an active part in naval operations during World War II. On May 24, 1941, Bismarck sank the British battlecruiser HMS Hood during the Battle of the Denmark Strait, and a few days later, it was itself sunk by Royal Navy forces. Although its service lasted only a little over a year, Bismarck made its mark in history as a symbol of the power of the German Navy.
