The
Alexander Newsky was a russian fregate, that stranded in a heavy
storm, 25th. of September, 1868, of the Jutland Westcoast, from
Harboøre. Among the crewmembers was the son of the Russian
Zar, as a part of his maritime education. Normally, stranding
meant a catastrophic disaster with lots of lost lives and materials,
but in this case, it was a rather succesfull rescue of the 400
men onboard the ship.
Only 4 people lost their life, thanks to the poor, but brave rescuers
on land. The wreck was so huge and rich on metal, furnitures,
etc. that the whole wealth of the community was increased remarkable,
several years after the incident.
Today, the wreck is strongly
broken down, but because of the great and famous history, it's
really worth a visit.
