This 140 meter l.o.a. battleship-turned-museum was the most important and impressive surviving naval vessel in the history of Hellenic navy, and is the world's only surviving heavily armoured cruiser. Commisioned in 1911, this ship remained active in service for 44 years and survived four different wars in the first half of 20th century. In 1985, she was towed to her permanent berth at Faliron bay, and is now serving as a naval museum. (Piraeus, Greece / 2010)
