Description
Deutsch: Sleeping Beauty Foto aufgenommen im Marinemuseum Horten, Norwegen


English: Photo taken at the Royal Norwegian Navy Museum (Norwegian: Marinemuseet) in Horten:
  • The Motorised Submersible Canoe (MSC), nicknamed Sleeping Beauty, was built by the British Special Operations Executive (SOE) during World War II as an underwater vehicle for a single frogman to perform clandestine reconnaissance or attacks against enemy vessels.
Marinemuseet is one of the world's oldest naval museums. The navy museum was founded in 1853 and has been in the old magazine on Karljohansvern since 1864. The "old department" is somewhat retained, but the museum has later grown to more than 2.000 sqm, rich in information and close proximity to the many models and objects.
