HDMS Lamprenen (1612)

HDMS Lamprenen was a Danish-Norwegian ship of the line launched in 1612. Details regarding its specific design, armament, and service history are scarce and fragmented in available historical records. It is known that the ship served within the Royal Danish-Norwegian Navy during a period of considerable naval expansion and reform under King Christian IV. The naming convention, "Lamprenen," likely refers to the lamprey, a type of jawless fish, a common practice for warships of the era. Further research is required to ascertain more specific details about its operations, battles, and eventual fate. The "HDMS" prefix indicates that the ship belonged to the "His Danish Majesty's Ship" fleet.
