Q20894581
The French ironclad Savoie was one of 10 Provence-class armored frigates built for the French Navy during the 1860s. Commissioned in 1865, she was initially assigned to the Northern Squadron, often serving as a flagship. The ironclad played a minor role in the Franco-Prussian War of 1870–1871, blockading the North Sea coast of Prussia. Savoie was reduced to reserve after the war, but was reactivated in 1872 and assigned to the Mediterranean Squadron. The ship was decommissioned in 1879 and was used for testing in 1883. Savoie was stricken in 1888 and was scrapped the following year.
