It is even more important because it is the only ship of the line that has survived to this day in conditions faithful to the originals.

HMS Victory was launched in 1765. The rest of the works such as the rigging, the sails and the armament were progressively completed until in 1778 the ship of the line could be in active service. Specifically, this was a first class ship. The initials of this famous ship refer to “His/Her Majesty’s Ship.” In this case “His”, since the ship first sailed during the reign of George III of the United Kingdom and Ireland (1738-1820).

HMS VICTORY IN THE BATTLE OF TRAFALGAR

HMS Victory soon participated in its first battle, in 1778. Loaded with 104 guns and under the command of different commanders, this three-decker British ship of the line lived through several wars and had various functions. For a few years it became a hospital ship for Spanish and French prisoners of war. It was not until 1805, at Cape Trafalgar, that he achieved worldwide fame for leading the English fleet to victory.

Two years after being assigned to command HMS Victory, vice admiral Horatio Nelson was the leader who participated in the aforementioned Battle of Trafalgar. It was the most decisive of the Napoleonic Wars.

Thirty-four Franco-Spanish ships encountered a much stronger and better prepared British Royal Navy. The defeat was imminent and indisputable. The fleet led by Vice Admiral Nelson won the most important battle. It was the beginning of the decline of the French emperor in Europe.

Vice Admiral Nelson, however, never knew his victory. During the heat of battle, he was shot through his spine and ended his life a few hours later, becoming one of Britain’s greatest war heroes. This battle was the one that put an end to the French and Spanish navies. The United Kingdom would assume maritime supremacy, which would last until World War II.
