This is a postcard of the Battleship S. M. S. Rheinland. She was commissioned in 1910. Along with her three sister ships of the Nassau Klasse, she formed the I Battleship Squadron. She fought at the Battle of Jutland (Skagerrakschlacht) and suffered one hit from British gunfire. Interestingly, she had four turrets: one in the center afore-ships and one in the center astern, then two off-center on the port side, an interesting arrangement. She is depicted in profile from the port side, since she is in a harbor with small boats coming and going from her. The postcard was never mailed, but the technical details are printed in the upper left corner.

Battleship S. M. S. Friedrich der Große was one of the most modern battleships as WW I began. She was one of the four-ship “Kaiser” Class. The S. M. S. Friedrich der Große was assigned to Battleship Squadron Nr 3. She participated with her sister battleships at the May/June 1916 Battle of Jutland (Skagerrak).
