Leichter Kreuzer Nürnberg in 1945


The design of Kreuzer F (later named Nürnberg ) was slightly modified Leipzig , the size grew about 1000 ts and the fuel capacity was dramatically decreased, so the ship had all the flaws of  its half sister Leipzig .
Built between 1933 and 1935, the Nürnberg was taken over by the Russians after the war and was the last major German ship of World War II when it was decommissioned in 1961.
