Tordenskjold Class Coastal Battleship

The Tordenskjold Class consisted of 2 ships that where built in Elswick, Great Britain. These ships where named "Tordenskjold" and "Harald Haarfagre"
In 1895, there was a conflict between the Norwegian and Swedish states, in the so-called consulate case. Where the navy had previously suffered from a lack of money, extraordinary funds were now granted on 25 July, which were used to erect fortifications and new ships. The result was the four armored ships "Tordenskjold", "Harald Haarfagre", "Norge" and "Eidsvold".
"Tordenskjold" and "Harald Haarfagre" where ordered in 1896 and finished in 1897. The armored ships were intended to serve in costal waters, and at the time was larges Norwegian vessels in service, together with the Eidsvold Class Coastal Battleship
