Nowadays the barque Kruzenshtern belongs to the “State Academy of the Baltic Fishing Fleet” of Russia and is used for training purposes.
However, the history of this ship goes back to 1926, when, according to old tradition, the daughter of one of the shipowners Eric F. Laeisz gave her the name “Padua”.
Nobody could have imagined what a long and beautiful fate awaited a new sailing ship.
It was involved in ten of the world's largest sailing ships and undertook numerous overseas and round-the-world expeditions.
