Built of steel by Blohm & Voss, Hamburg, as a schoolship for the German merchant marine. She was rigged as a three-masted full-rigged ship carrying royals over single topgallant sails. She was very similar to the Grossherzogin Elizabeth, and another ``near-sister'' was built later, the Grossherzog Friedrich August, although she was rigged as a barque. - 1919
Seized by the French, who did not make use of her, however. - 1929
Sold to Poland to replace the older Lwow as a training ship for the Polish Naval Academy in Gdynia. The Prinzess Eitel Friedrich was renamed Dar Pomorza, and had an engine installed.She served this purpose for more than 50 years, with the exception of the World War II years, when she was interned in Stockholm.
- 4 August 1982
Decomissioned and replaced by the newly built Dar Mlodziezy. The Dar Pomorza was turned into a museum ship in Gdynia.
