Sail training ship · open to the sea since 1999
Frigate Shtandart · a museum under sail

Come
aboard.

Explore a working 18th-century frigate at your own pace or join a private tour led by a crew member.

01Living history
in every port

Three centuries
up one gangway.

Shtandart is not a stage set or a museum model. She is a working wooden frigate, built using 18th-century techniques and still sailing today.

On board, you will discover how a ship from the age of Peter the Great was organised, where sailors worked and rested, how square sails are handled and how an international crew and volunteers keep this historic vessel alive.

Not one
accidental detail.

Modern equipment is hidden from view to preserve the atmosphere of Peter the Great’s era.

01

Hull and sails

The hull, spars, rigging and sails reproduce the design of an 18th-century frigate.

02

Made by hand

Carved decorations were crafted by hand from historical drawings of Peter the Great’s ships.

03

Life at sea

Cannons, tools, ropes and hammocks were recreated with close attention to historical materials.

04

A living ship

These details serve more than history: Shtandart regularly goes to sea and trains her crew.
