[REGNUM] The 54-gun ship of the line "Poltava" arrived in St. Petersburg, the Department of Information and Mass Communications of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation reported on July 16.
The ship, an exact copy of the battleship of the Russian Imperial Navy of the Peter the Great era, stood in the center of St. Petersburg in the roadstead between the Palace and Troitsky bridges.
"The task of towing the sailing ship was carried out by the tugs of a detachment of support vessels of the Leningrad naval base," said the commander-in-chief of the Russian Navy, Admiral Nikolai Evmenov.
"The ship perfectly illustrates part of the history of the Russian fleet, which turns 325 this year," he stressed.
Let us remind you that this is a copy of the 54-gun battleship of the fourth rank, launched on June 15 (26), 1712 from the slipway of the St. Petersburg Admiralty and built with the direct participation of Peter the Great.
As reported by IA REGNUM , the Main Naval Parade will be held in St. Petersburg on July 25, the Day of the Russian Navy.
