Description

The flag was used onboard the battlecruiser "SMS Goeben". Launched in 1911. Transferred to the Ottoman Empire on 16. August 1914 as well as renamed "Yavuz Sultan Selim". The handover of the ship to the Ottoman Navy was one of the decisive factors for Turkey's entry into the war. During the First World War, the ship was commanded by Kapitän zur See Richard Ackermann and Kapitän zur See Albert Stoelzel. Scrapped from 1973 to 1976.

A so-called "Reichskriegsflagge". Made from linen. Printed to both sides. "SMS Goeben Reserveflagge VI" stamped. Original cord in place. Some holes and signs of use.

Size: 236x138 cm.
