Kronprinsessen (DAC ship)

Kronprinsessen in c. 1805.

Kronprinsessen (lit. "The Crown Princess") was a frigate of the Danish Asiatic Company, bought in 1802. During the Napoleonic Wars, in 1808–10, she was loaned to the Royal Danish Navy for use as a station ship. She later sailed on two more expeditions for the Danish Asiatic Company, first to Tranquebar in 1818–20, and then, in 1822–23, to Canton. Theodor Emil Ludvigsen has described the expedition to Canton in his memoirs Erindringer om mine Søreiser og Livs Begivenheder.
