    The SMS Rostock was a small cruiser of the imperial navy and was built in 1912.
    She was hit by a British torpedo on 1 June 1916 off the coast of Denmark. The crew was taken by German torpedo boats and the ship should be towed. When this did not succeed in the battle, the Germans sunk their ship through several torpedoes.

      Directly opposite in sight you can see various "gravestones" of ships in the arrangement as they are on the seabed.

        The small cruiser Rostock took part in the Skagerak Battle (May 31 & June 1, 1916).
        The ship was lost because it was damaged by a British torpedo. When German units wanted to tow Rostock, British capital ships approached. For this reason, the ship was sunk by five German torpedoes itself.
