1914 · three-masted barque — one of the first ships confirmed for the Armada de Rouen 2027.
A majestic Norwegian sail-training ship launched in 1914, the Statsraad Lehmkuhl is widely considered one of the most beautiful tall ships in the world. Crewed by cadets, she has circled the globe and is a highlight of any Armada line-up.
The classic white-and-black hull, a forest of rigging, and her young international crew at work aloft.
Like the rest of the fleet, Statsraad Lehmkuhl will be moored along the Rouen quays from 17–27 June 2027, and boarding is free. Go early in the day to climb aboard before the queues build — the most famous ships draw crowds by mid-morning. See the full fleet and the programme.
We'll email the complete 2027 ship list and boarding schedule the moment the organisers publish them.
