History

The German Prinz Eugen (IX 300) Admiral Hipper-Class Heavy Cruiser was a German Admiral Hipper-class heavy cruiser, launched in 1938 and commissioned into the Kriegsmarine in 1940. Named after an Austrian general, she was one of Nazi German’s most modern and powerful surface warships during World War II. She is best known for her role alongside the battleship Bismarck in the Battle of the Denmark Strait in May 1941, where they engaged and sank the British battlecruiser HMS Hood. The German Prinz Eugen Admiral Hipper-Class Heavy Cruiser was damaged later in the war but continued to serve in various operations, including shore bombardments and escort missions in the Baltic Sea. After German’s surrender in 1945, The German Prinz Eugen Admiral Hipper-Class Heavy Cruiser was handed over to the United States as a war prize. She was later used in atomic bomb tests at Bikini Atoll in 1946. Remarkably, she survived the explosions but eventually capsized and sank due to damage and radiation exposure. Her wreck remains in the Marshall Islands today.
