The naval battle near Helgoland was fought in the North Sea on May 9, 1864 during the German-Danish War between the naval forces of Austria and Prussia on the one hand and Denmark on the other. The Austrian commander Wilhelm von Tegetthoff broke off the naval battle after his flagship caught fire. He withdrew his squadron to cover the neutral waters around Helgoland, which was then part of Great Britain
