TFA blurb review
SMS Nymphe was the lead ship of the Nymphe-class corvette of steam corvettes, built for the Prussian Navy. A wooden-hulled ship armed with a battery of sixteen guns, Nymphe was laid down in January 1862, launched in April 1863, and completed that October. She saw action during the Second Schleswig War against Denmark in 1864 at the Battle of Jasmund, but was not engaged during the Austro-Prussian War of 1866. During the Franco-Prussian War in 1870 a French squadron of ironclads had anchored off Danzig, and Nymphe launched a surprise night attack. This was ineffective, but convinced the French to withdraw from a close blockade of German ports. In 1871, Nymphe embarked on a major overseas deployment to the Pacific Ocean and East Asia and remained abroad until mid-1874, after which she was converted into a training ship for apprentice seamen. She underwent a a complete reconstruction in 1885, but was stricken from the naval register in July 1887 and hulked. Nymphe was sold in 1891 and broken up.
