Build a model of the HMS Victory from the Battle of Trafalgar and embark on an incredible construction journey back to the Napoleonic era - all in an impressive 1:144 scale!

Constructed from over 2,517 pieces, the HMS Victory model faithfully reproduces structural details, while ensuring solidity and durability thanks to high-quality materials, the model dimensions: 605 mm x 195 mm x 435 mm.

This ideal scale allows you to create a true historical masterpiece with canvas, movable sails. Each stage of building this ship is an adventure, revealing the details of this incredible vessel. With 14 fabric-rendered sails, plus rigging, the model impresses with its precision.  Other features include lifeboat models on deck and the suspended, movable anchors further "enliven" the entire structure.

The Set includes a brick base with name plate which includes the logo of the ship & museum.

At the beginning of the 19th century, Europe found itself in the shadow of Napoleon Bonaparte's power. His ambitions to conquer Hegemony over the continent required breaking the resistance of Great Britain—a maritime fortress whose fleet was undefeated.
The key moment of this rivalry was the Battle of Trafalgar, fought on October 21, 1805, off the coast of Spain. Admiral Horatio Nelson, a distinguished strategist and national hero, commanded the British fleet from the deck of HMS Victory, a sailing ship of the line built between 1759 and 1765 at the Chatham Dockyard.

Nelson led his squadron against a combined Franco-Spanish force commanded by Admiral Pierre de Villeneuve.
The battle ended in a complete victory for the Royal Navy: 19 enemy ships were captured, while the rest were destroyed or fled. However, the battle itself cost Admiral Nelson his life, who died from a gunshot wound during the fight, becoming a symbol of sacrifice and patriotism.
This victory sealed Britain's naval supremacy for decades to come and once and for all ended Napoleon's plans to invade the British Isles.
